Drupal or Wordpress can achieve this quite easily.

Wordpress: http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities
Drupal: http://www.drupalgardens.com/documentation/roles

Only thing I could really find about contributing stories:
http://wiki.geeklog.net/index.php/Contributing_a_Story
And on approving users:
http://wiki.geeklog.net/index.php/Users_and_Groups

Seems like the roles are hardcoded?

Use to use Geeklog many years ago, but newer systems have sprung up to take
its place that are much simpler and advanced.
