I have good memory but unless the song+map make me orgasm FLing it is a waste of time
no real skill involved beyond rote memorisation and not even that on some map
can't even memorize 25 combos
people generally dislike FL players
bad memorization and irrational hatred
I don't held back from using FL
brain rape is a no-no
i'm using hidden rather than FL :/

I tend to think that Flashlight mod never existed.
memorization
Takes too much time.
Well in all seriousness I actually respect FL players a lot.[CSGA]Ar3sgice wrote:

They have good memory and attention to detail, being careful not to make careless mistakes, they work hard for their FL FC's.
Especially people like azuraer who manage to stay at the top using this mod even though their play style is greatly disadvantageous. (hint: mouse only big big yeahXD)
It is a waste of time
It is much easier to do DT with anything combined like HR/HD than anything with FL involved.
I actually like using FL on maps i really like.
Most people seem to hate FL, because it is the easiest mod to cheat with in any way.

Pretty everything what -Athena- said.
To memorize hard Parts of a Diff is part of the Gameplay.
Before people comes with the argument "There's also people FCing it at first try":
I don't care.

fcing an insane with FL on first try is amazing
I Play FL mode sometime because I don't memorizing Note
and Hard to see note if it Hight combo
and Hard to see note if it Hight combo
Getting nervous at higher combo (where the visible area gets smaller)
and it's not like it's a waste of time , it's only that most of the players will doubt about you after a 1# with flashlight
(well excpet easy and normal diffs)

Some people (like me) can't actually use DT on harder maps, which is why I used FL mod because I'm pretty good at memorizing anyway.bomber34 wrote:

For this, I can't help but to agree with this though, which is kinda depressing.bomber34 wrote:

I personally find certain maps fun to play with FL, such as this. I can't play that map with DT because of the streams (which I suck at

I only fc'd one Insane map with FL so far, and that took me thousands of tries. (Yes, thousands.)

I don't play FL for FCs, i just play it for fun 
Because i hate people who cheat on it and it makes me hate the mod for it as well, i do respect people who i think doesn't cheat with it tho, like azuraer, but it makes it really disgusting when you know atleast 4 people in your country that cheats it D:
I used to like it and play it a lot before but that hack thing made me hate it quite a lot.

My biggest issue with FL is that I am one of those weird people who thinks that speed and accuracy amount to skill. Yes, reading a map is important too, but let's face it... the FL mod is a memorization game. You slowly memorize the map beat by beat. Since I personally just don't value that skill, I can't really get any enjoyment out of doing it. It feels like a waste of time to me. I'd rather be trying to play BPMs above my comfort zone than play FL.
From my point of view, FLHD plays generally have more scores than most DTHD plays. I think that's because FL players tend to get higher accuracy compared to DT players.Glass wrote:

He argues that the extra time spent to learn FL over DT isn't worth that small increase in score due to accuracy.Frizz925 wrote:

Memorization is the main reason why I don't play FL. There are hackers in every mod, and I wish the admins the best of luck to catch these losers.
Pretty much memorization. I always use FL when I can, however I have a pretty bad memory so I can't FC 200+ combo insanes without needing ridiculous amounts of tries (in my profile there is a map that I have tried 940 times just to FL the 300 first notes).
Oh, and getting nervous at higher combos (which is why I haven't FL FC'd Solar since I always get very nervous after ~750x).

I'm above average at memorizing but I get nervous/the reduced sight area makes it harder to snap jumps.
