Apparently some people that play don't understand:
A. What constitutes a "HO"
B. That the person that kills you may not be awarded the kill.

In real life 100% of all deaths are related to lack of oxygen to the brain. That never happens in AH.

Mellow out! He was saying Vraciu did a nice ho at around the one minute mark. He even pointed out "not you!" when you called him out on not knowing what a HO was.

He also went on and on about how I wasn't the one who killed him.

It's all because HO means "Head On", so that leads non-thinking peoples to just label anything that is front quarter a HO. A few subtleties aside, a HO is when both pilots have a gun solution.

If they are not thinking, shouldn't it be called "Head Off"?

The people that call anything front quarter should be called that, yes. :)

HO is a legit shot in my book because it takes two though I usually try for the six..........but when you fly the 110g, you kind of try not so hard to avoid them.

Agreed... I've learned from some of Aces High's best sticks that 110G and P-47 are actually good to encourage the HO since the odds are stacked in your favor.
What has been really interesting for me to see is the lack of direct head-on attacks in sims without icons.
