lets not try to whitewash our history -- chaki contributed so much to these boards and went out like icarus, flying too close to the sun -- i for one will never forget him and i wholeheartedly oppose renaming the board that has given ilx so many lols

You try a good deed and it gets thrown back in your face.

and the way it really encourages polls/discussion of this sort in the future - that made me feel appreciated and also gave me another good reason to not just be however capricious I feel like being in the future. so thanks, dom, for earning yourself a 4-day from IMP. I do hope you already got your vote in

I missed where Ch*k* got permabanned instead of temp banned, but if he's gone for good then I can't think of a better thing than to turn "his" board into "His" board.

wtf @ this thread? Why Ask Chaki? Ask Chaki! is a great board & chaki is a great dude & I thought he was just taking a break from ILX until it stops being lame?

what's the appropriate analogy for people who think that "chaki" is coming back when ilx stops being "lame"?

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 11 June 2008 03:01 (fifteen years ago) link

i vote that "ask chaki" remains "ask chaki" for the eventual lols when new people ask who chaki is and we attempt to explain.

I say if the world's clamoring for some old Father Guido Sarducci routines, then go ahead and move the team to Indianapolis.

I felt like Morbius as I was typing that last sentence!

Pleasant Plains, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 03:09 (fifteen years ago) link

does this imply that chaki is a martyr? if so, no.

bell_labs, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 03:20 (fifteen years ago) link

chaki made a lot of enemies but he was one of ilx's celebrity posters, look at the nostalgia w/ which everyone now regards momus

max, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 03:47 (fifteen years ago) link

also what is wrong with a thread on iLE called 'the church'

jhøshea, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 04:00 (fifteen years ago) link

max clearly not aware of the famous transition from "Ask Momus!" to what we now know as "I Love NFL"

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 04:05 (fifteen years ago) link

i feel like maybe having all the old ask chaki threads in the church would sully it - it needs to start off pure to be pure see

fwiw I didn't mean that *I* think ILX is lame, just that chaki does.

why can't we just start a new board for "The Church"

Curt1s Stephens, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 04:39 (fifteen years ago) link

ok wow...... lemme get my thoughts together

The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 04:44 (fifteen years ago) link

First of all, should be "The Church of ILX".

I agree with jho about the fact that all the existing Ask Chaki threads would sully The Church of ILX. The Church of ILX needs to start fresh. I also think that Ask Chaki can be left as it is, though I wouldn't be against renaming it after a current poster. As an additional note, J0rdan stfu.

The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 04:55 (fifteen years ago) link

I hope Abb & DV weigh in on this.

The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 04:56 (fifteen years ago) link

I wouldn't be opposed to renaming Ask Chaki! to "MEGA WHOREHOUSE" either.

The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 05:20 (fifteen years ago) link

well nobody would, we don't need a poll for that

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 05:21 (fifteen years ago) link

Please note that the following posters have supported creation of The Church of ILX, (excluding some ambiguous mentions) while only J0rdan S. has expressed opposition:

I dunno if you noticed but this is a poll. you vote in it.

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 05:46 (fifteen years ago) link

by which I mean I ain't noting shit, you need to e-mail ILX System about whatever.

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 05:47 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm not voting. *shrrrrug*

get off your own dick

The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:36 (fifteen years ago) link

i mean i outlined a bunch of points, if youre being serious why don't you respond to them? for your convenience i will reiterate them here:

a) if this is a serious religious board, do you really think that there are going to be enough serious religious questions and moral quandaries to sustain the board over a long period of time?
b) if you guys are being serious, could this not be covered in a rolling thread?
c) if this is not a serious religious board, how will it differ in humor from 77/noize/1p3/ire/cape of good hope?

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:37 (fifteen years ago) link

im not waging war against the church of ilx or anything im just fishing around for what merits the creation of a sub board and what doesnt, cuz to me it seems like, as i said earlier, three (good) posters with one hair brained idea "supported" by a bunch of people who are being good sports.

im just assuming/predicting that it's going to turn into an ask a drunk type board within a few months and idk it's just a lot of clutter

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:41 (fifteen years ago) link

am i being a fun hater y/n?

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:42 (fifteen years ago) link

It's a religious board encompassing both the serious and the unserious. I hope that answers your questions.

xp: y

The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:46 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm sure a lot of the current active sub-boards started as three (or less!) good posters with a hare-brained idea.

The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:48 (fifteen years ago) link

currently

The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:48 (fifteen years ago) link

It should all be religious, in the loosest term of the word, ie instead of 'Pizza - classic or dud/search and destroy' it should be 'DOES GOD JUDGE ME WHEN I PUT PINEAPPLE ON PIZZA????'

Can't believe we created a monastery.

I guess the next logical thing to poll is Should "The Church" be renamed "I Love Politics"

☮ (peace, man), Friday, 3 May 2019 00:03 (four years ago) link

if i thought it would so effectively shut the topic down, sure
