Well that does it for me.  What a HO bag manfred was.  Just look at what it has done to our children in AH!  Turned them into open channel miscreants and defilers of humanity!

Damn the HOs  Damn them!  :cry

Tactic in war..... where you get one life.

In a game it is simply dweebish.

In real life you have limited time to improve... one mistake and you'll probably die.

In game you have a lot of time to improve (should one try) and if you make a mistake you get another chance.

.... and even longer

I avoid HO's like the plague, but in two and half years of flying I have been HO'ed by the worst & the best of Aces High.  It happens... :aok

Looked like near the end of his 1st flight he "wacked" a friendly!! :uhoh

so let me see - it's OK to shoot you in the back but not to your face . Not sure the knights of old would see ANY honour in that!  :neener:

HO-boys - gotta love em eh! :D
HO is a HO is a HO!!
You can lead a donkey to a FACT - you just can't make them think!

It's only a HO if you're the one that gets shot down, otherwise, according to the old schoolers, it's a 'Front Quarter Angle Shot' or so I'm told.
I Always HO. You can save all that Quasi-Ettiquete for the DA where it belongs,  like I said before, if I get a shot, I'm taking it. If you're foolish enough to approach a plane with cannon head on, you deserve your firey death.
