I made a previous post about how to say "I hate washing the dishes" which is {mi xebni lonu lumci lo palta}. However, if I wanted to say "I like washing the dishes" I can't just say {mi nelci lonu lumci lo palta} because {nelci} takes a state/object for x2, right? If so, then how do I say "I like washing the dishes"?

You can. It has the same place structure as xebni. (Why one says "object/abstraction" and the other says "object/state" is beyond me, though.)
 
One other thing, how do I say "no, thank you"? Can I just say {na'igo'i .i ki'e}?

I would say {ki'enai}.
 
ki'e
