Insults I ignore....even when posted in Latin.  In fact, it's always a sign the other side has run out of arguments or has lost. 

That said:

"Profanity is the weapon of the witless."

“When a man uses profanity to support an argument, it indicates that either the man or the argument is weak - probably both”

And now, back to the subject of HOing....take it away...um....whoever.

Just let me know when you want to start debating if front quarter shots are a valid tactic.   The rest isn't worth bothering with.

I never said it wasnt MrIgnorer and in fact I said I had no issue with it.  My argument was, given your funny, first graph, chart, hoohahaha, that it takes less skill to attack a plane with your guns from any angle (360 degrees) than it does to saddle him while he's actively trying to buck you.   WTG...you just accidently kicked your own butt.

The only time any HO is justified is when I get the kill, preferably when my teammate dies from the collision and I collect the proxy of the wingless con.


Shut up nerdcat. *Gives wedgy*

You misunderstood....

It takes far more skill defending yourself (remember that concept)  when you can be fired upon from any quarter of the plane.... And far less skill to defend yourself if you can only be shot at from behind.
