Hmmm, kind of afraid to ask, what are ball slaps?

Just as it sounds. Quick backhand to the nuts

A few weeks ago Chubbs dropped me like a ton of bricks with a ballslap right in the middle of our favorite bar.
On the walk home I retaliated and while he was down coughing up his insides a cop rolled up to make sure he was okay.
"Yeah he's fine.  He just got hit in the nuts."

I just wiped my ass then smelled the toilet paper.  What's wrong with me?

the dude either has some high float or a mess between the cheeks.

I'm staying out of the whole ball slap issue, don't want to go there...

So do some of you curve players have no IBBs as your only rule?

IBB is part of the game & is great strategy. Don't like getting your guys walked, then make the pitcher pay with the next guy. Until then, you're going to get walked. Of course the absolute best payback is when you get an IBB, then hit one out with the next guy, THEN when your IBB guy is up again your opponent is so frustrated he pitches to him & you hit one out with him. That's real intimidating and a good way to mentally defeat someone.

As for your other question, the only rule we do is the infield fly rule.

I concure with Marquis/Mike all the way on this one...

No IBB---no infield fly.

Just pitch and play let it happen.
