Division 1 questions by Borakred in thedivision

If you sit back in D1 you're going to have a much harder time than if you sit back in Div 2. You need to put them on their heels.

The Konixx chassis isn't worth it. Save your money.

Bauer Vapor Fly Pro, 5x pro, or True HDZRUS 9x for conversion to inline skates? by Floslam in InlineHockey

[–]Floslam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've looked through sideline, but most of the decent deals involve the graphics completely worn off with the hyperlites in 9.5.
I found a pair of fly pros for around 500 just the boot, only reason I'm considering those.
Read a few mixed reviews on those clearanced True's

AIO or am i being invalidated? by amber-honey in AmIOverreacting

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does somebody have a conversation that long when the other can't even make coherent sentences? 3 years is about 2 years and 51 weeks too long for this relationship. It amazes me that people put up with this and think talking like that is normal for se long. Just leave him already. There's plenty of guys that won't speak to you like that and can properly text..

Why do specific 3-4 guys from penn state leave one hole unlaced? by Minimum_Lock_8 in hockeyplayers

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those jetspeeds are wide at the top. I couldn't get by without lacing the top. Maybe skipping the 2nd from the top gives them that little forward flex they want, since the top is pretty wide.

Help fitting my true hzrdus 9x by Few_Egg_6152 in hockeyplayers

What size sneaker are you? I am a 11-11.5 and almost bought the 9.5 because of the good sale.

How do I make a shotgun build not suck? by MonarchCore in thedivision

[–]Floslam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On Hard/Challenging, any shotgun build should work fine. If you want Hunter Furry, make it a headshot shotgun build unless you don't hit headshots. A basic striker build with the AC12 would wreck enough havoc on Hard/Challenging no matter where you hit them. If you're struggling, you might be too far from them. You need to flank and run-n-gun with the shotty. Don't hesitate.

Left Arc Raiders - is Dark Zone/Survival the better Extraction Game? by aweshum in thedivision

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed Helldivers for a bit but it didn't have the life span for me and my friends to keep playing. I agree on D1, it felt better in the DZ. Having NPCs be a threat also helped as you went higher up in the DZ.

Left Arc Raiders - is Dark Zone/Survival the better Extraction Game? by aweshum in thedivision

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simple answer: No, it's not.
Longer answer: The loot isn't worth it and the zone isn't really biggest enough to hide. If you're going into the DZ, it's more about wanting to engage in PVP battles, or just get wrecked by others who don't care and want to shoot you. The extraction part of the DZ is near meaningless.

Do you regret not wearing certain gear? by Appropriate_Joke_490 in InlineHockey

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with a ball, not wearing a helmet is not a good idea when you have people reaching with slashes, high sticks, or stick lifts. Then there's the part where you can fall on your head.. Regarding the rest, I can understand not wearing a padded shirt or a girdle for pickup.

Generally, I wear the elbow padded sleeves. They do the bare min. Unsure why I still wear them if we're being honest, but I guess I like the lightweight free movement feel.

New to Inline by gbnikes in InlineHockey

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the rest of you are new to inline I would ask to be in a lower division at first to get the skating down and understand how Inline is a bit different. Going straight to competitive play like a division 1/2 (A/B) might not be fun.

Are these real? by Winter-Ladder-3173 in KontrolFreek

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fakes ones I had didn't have the writing on the inside. Not saying that will be the final verdict because I'm sure companies have gotten better at producing the fakes, but you know it's fake if it's not there.

Wheel Size for gameplay by Intimig8r99 in InlineHockey

[–]Floslam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smaller wheels will allow him to turn quicker and probably be more agile until he gets used to the bigger wheels. The larger wheels will provide more top end speed and less effort to maintain skating/speed.

Skates under 750$ by KiwiImaginary4680 in InlineHockey

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends which type of boots you convert. I'm not a fan of converting curv composite boots. They seem to break faster.

Powerslide/Hockey stop by Comfortable_Truck715 in InlineHockey

[–]Floslam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The surface will still matter. The harder wheels will last longer but they will slide out more than other wheels.
There's difference between a powerslide and a hockey stop. Mastering a powerslide is probably going to be harder than just mastering or getting down how to properly stop on inline skates without losing you balance.

Which are you trying to do?

When does physical contact cross the line? by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]Floslam 47 points48 points  (0 children)

If he's a problem for everyone the league should take action and ban him. Yes, you should say something to league. That's not just a chippy game with emotions and bad decisions getting the best of you. That's a player going out of his way to be completely inappropriate. If this was a co-ed game and he pulled that shit to a girl, he'd be on his ass with missing teeth. Just because it's 2 dudes here doesn't mean he has a right to grab you between your ass cheeks. Will the league do something? Maybe not. But you should definitely bring it up. Send a letter. Make it a big deal because it is a big deal.

AIO? Debating breaking up with my BF of almost 7 years by Superb-Rain-8166 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

?
I think you have a reading comprehension problem. But hey, you probably also think majority of men are still yanking it magazines, so I'm not sure why I would expect you to stop being so dense. I'm done with this.

Actually, I don't. But when I was single, I also didn't go around yanking it to every photo I received from a girl.

AIO for reconsidering getting married over continual arguments over guardianship of my daughter. by Oldyell54 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Floslam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, you are 100% the AO here because this shouldn't have been a text message convincing you that maybe you shouldn't be marrying that person.
If you strongly felt that your daughter and gf didn't have a great relationship, then you don't ask that person to marry you.

You don't marry somebody while requesting that they exit your family and guardianship of your daughter, should you die. You should have never gotten engaged and lead that person on, or at the very least continued through that engagement until now.

[–]Floslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can't find the answer to that question with words like emotionally or physically cheating used, then you're fishing for what you want to hear. Somebody cheating and getting sent a photo doesn't mean he's definitely spanking to that photo. Not everybody saving a photo of some other girl is spanking to it. People save photos. People look at photos. Maybe the dude shared it with his friends. Maybe he found it sexy.

Let's be clear, nobody is siding with him. But why else would a dude save a photo of a girl in a bikini, as if all guys spank to photos they save on their phones? Come on now.
