I would like to meet true and honest solo fighters out there.
Who can be trusted with set rules.
So fights/wars can be picked.

Why:
- No RL time to be in a big corp
- Want to fight 1 vs 1 (and not start a 1 vs 1 fight that ends in a 1 vs many)
- High sec fights
- just for fun

Is there already anything like this in EvE?
Or do people have any tips regarding this?
Maybe its undoable, just let me know.

You know you can challenge other players for a duel, right?

As the proprietor of a one player (four character) corp, I can sympathize. I've had the best experience wardeccing other corps like mine and roaming around certain areas of losec. Slim pickings to be sure, but enough to keep you entertained if you work at it.

For cheap fights, RvB is a good place. I've been there, had a good time. If I had more time right now, I could be convinced to engage in such 1v1 wars, but now isn't a good time for that on my end.

I would, but I don't meet these 3 prerequisites.

maybe if you'd fight in lowsec against a dirty pirate we will have something to talk about.

I understand what you're asking for, and I think it's a great idea. I don't think there is something like this yet...

He wants a 1v1 war dec. There should be a way to enable it without it influencing other things (like corp mates) as long as it's a mutual thing.

For non-mutual, I can see it interfering a lot with corporations and those are more important from the gameplay standpoint, so I don't think it'll ever happen that way exactly.

Actually I think you might be able to do this now if you each get kill rights on each other somehow. They last a while.

We can set up a 'fight club'.

That club will meet somewhere at a set location in high sec.
At that location we could use the duel function as mentioned.
I've never done this before, will that work?
Or we could wardec each other, if you are also a one man corp.
Or maybe on an other way? We could discuss this.

We could set the rules in advance (Frigs, cruisers, T1, T2, etc..).
And of course there could be pirates looking for an easy kill, I don't mind losing such a ship, but then his name and/or corp will never be in the fight club again. Finding a cheater and banning him for life is worth the ship.

It will take time to build this club, as mutual trust needs to grow.
But with the right people, and some good will it can be done.

So who's the first that wants to meet me in a T1 frig, let's start out small.

I've set up a channel 'Fight Club 2014'
People can join, but I'm not around all the time, so ingame mail is better.

They only last a single explosion though.

Start your own channel. Moderate it, as you find like minded individuals, get some people to help moderate it. Build a community. That could actually be a pretty awesome community. Feel free to invite me to such a channel.

You could get good and learn how to actually fight instead of whining about people not 1v1ing you.

I think it's a great idea. I also have limited gametime due to a busy life. What kind of fights are you looking for? Frigate fights or bring-all-you-got battles?

He just wants one on one war decs to be an option for consenting players. He's not looking for a special arena (SISI e.g.,) or arranged fights (duels, etc.)

I'm sure someone might have mentioned it but RvB?

A lot of players like to 1vs1 and you can arrange to meet at planets for a 1vs1.

Most players in RvB are honorable.
