Why do people leave ILX for good?

who?

c21m50nh3x460n, but that doesn't explain who he was back in 02-03

but like he says, now chillin in lyfe.

oh come on he's not crimso

who the fuck is crimso?

not him that's for sure

jaymc to thread plz

I'd be surprised if chexy wasn't new as chexy tbh

Who is the sockpuppetmaster of ilx

TWU what's happening to me

He Do the Posters in Different Voices

the seemingly decline in big cultural tentpole moments is a factor for me. a lot of what made ilx fun for me was participating in those threads. although i guess a new star wars can be relied upon to come out every year. i think this is especially apparent on the music side. i mean just look at what was #1 for the tracks poll! a song nobody loved.

maybe that's another way of saying lots of good discussion can be found somewhere else, and also maybe that i'm less interested in engaging with the 'culture' nowadays. i will say ilx is nice though in that it's often a refuge from the hysteria present on other social media like twitter, the politics thread is often a good splash of cold water from trump fear.

also unfortunate is the number of shitty posts blanketing the board from posters like infinity symbol which makes finding the good stuff that much harder.

anyway! ilx is dead, long live ilx.

yea I admit I spent a lot of time trying to rile people up in the old days and a lot of my opinions were flat out dumb. one big moment for me was when I used the word "uppity" in the "is this racist" thread and a lot of people gave me shit for using such a "racially charged word". but I *honest to God* never remembering hearing the word in that context (or just didn't realize it at the time) so I thought all you guys were trolling me so I kept trolling back even harder, and then I looked it up and it turns out it IS a racially charged word, and I wanted to go and say "my bad" but wound up with 68,000 SBs and couldn't post for a while

lol I tried to get into the discord chat the other day and I guess it's gone or something. I don't understand the new ways of using the internet.

ilx declined when I stopped lurking and started posting regularly

I think this is the funniest shit, how many 'secret' chat rooms do we have now that are mostly ilx people? lagoon and I tried making a slack but no one joined but there are at least two active ones I know of, but am not part of (probably for the best)

but but but

xxp

unite all boards into a single one

Have to say 77 and [secret board name redacted] are where it is pretty much these days.

Oh wow auto corrected secret borad! :D

those chats are where they breed trolls w/regulars and come up with nefarious armies, i think that's what TWU is maybe on about.

I have heard of the double-secret board and have it on authority that it sucks

Oh man I remember this because, full disclosure, I didn't realize before then that it was racially charged and just thought it mean stuck up.

Imagine there's no 77. It's easy if you try.
No Moderator Request Forum. No I Love TMI.

i can tell how out of it i am bc i didn't even know these chats exist.

those chats made Trump president iirc

Hold on, there's more than one secret/invitation only board?

isn't TWU just rolling with the ongoing delusion that everyone who disagrees with him is a bot army, and not a bunch of people just reacting to bad posts

TWU's conspiracy theory is legitimately one of my favorite ongoing traditions.

oh and a couple of weeks ago, another great poster was driven off the board by a shitty poster. so there's that!

i love the idea of ILX crisis actors responding to bad opinions about Prefab Sprout or something.

is brad really gone xp? i may be done with ILM if brad is done

dayo otm

dayo i just rescreened that Johnnie To movie you sent me, it holds up.

i thought TWU was playing that for laughs nowadays tbh

Can't thank y'all enough that all this old days style excitement kicked off the day the wife left the country for a week

omar and dayo otm

AFAIK no there isn't. There are, however, other boards that ILX posters have started and brought posters with them but they're not hosted by ILX or hidden here.
