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

does this imply that chaki is a martyr? if so, no.
― bell_labs, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 03:20 (sixteen 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

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

what's the appropriate analogy for people who think that "chaki" is coming back when ilx stops being "lame"?
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 (sixteen years ago) link
ok wow...... lemme get my thoughts together
― The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 04:44 (sixteen 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.

I hope Abb & DV weigh in on this.
― The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 04:56 (sixteen years ago) link
I wouldn't be opposed to renaming Ask Chaki! to "MEGA WHOREHOUSE" either.

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

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 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 (sixteen 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

am i being a fun hater y/n?
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:42 (sixteen years ago) link
It's a religious board encompassing both the serious and the unserious. I hope that answers your questions.

― The Reverend, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 08:46 (sixteen 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 (sixteen years ago) link
currently
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????'
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 09:12 (sixteen years ago) link
I don't care about Ask Chaki, I just like the Church idea.
Really I don't think we need any more boards but this one is actually funny.

More over-analytical, I think.
― Pashmina, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 09:31 (sixteen years ago) link
think jordan has a point though, over analytical or not.
how bout a board called Excelsior where people post stuff that made them laugh from other boards?
how bout a board called WDYLL where people post photos of themselves?
nothing against the idea, but is it really a 'board' by itself?
― darraghmac, Wednesday, 11 June 2008 09:45 (sixteen years ago) link
I don't really like the idea of the New Church being soiled by association with this Chaki fellow.

I also like new incarnation of it being predestined name of The Church of ILX.

I ask for so little.
i will throw my support and funding behind the church assuming that i get indulgences.
jordan why are you trying to run a cost-benefit analysis on potential funny?

It's weird that for as much time as I spend on ILX, I miss big meta discussions like this. And also like wtf is the Cape of Good Hope. I'm guessing this is b/c I don't use Site New Answers.
