I get plenty of solokills in FW... just gotta know what to fly and how to fly it. Solo pvp doesn't mean 1v1's, it means 1v10's and surviving.
You maybe have 10 true solo kills out of the 500 kills you got in 2011. Note that I don't count the ones where you may be solo on the kill mail, but judging from related kills are obviously in a fleet engagement (where it is not 1vX, but XvX).
The point I'm making here is that you are not a solo PvPer. You will take the opportunistic solo kill in between your your regular PvP activities and those are few and far between.
Someone who purely solo's might get a little more of those solo kills, but you can still easily go a couple of roaming nights without getting an actual kill. Definitely if your online time happens to be outside of the peak hours.

Like I said: I don't consider it to be a solo kill when the circumstances of the fight (other kill mails at the same time, same system) point out that he/she was in a gang at the time. The fact that you happen to be alone on the kill mail does not (IMO) mean it is a pure solo kill.
What I'm basically saying here is that killboard stats don't show the entire picture and may in this case be misleading.
(Also: Ibisses and ****fit T1 frigates may give you a kill mail, but are rather irrelevant to the topic being discussed in this thread.)
The OP on the other hand seems to have plenty of pure solo kills.

If you see a series of militia kills or any other corporation or alliance in a system, within a limited time frame (say 30min) on a persons killboard. And on those kills are the person who's killboard you are examining along with several others in his/her corporation or militia, others who keep appearing on most of the kills in the above mentioned time frame ... Then yes, that does mean the person was in a fleet and was killing things with that fleet. Therefore, by my definition, all kills in that time frame where the person is alone on the mail are not solo kills. Why? Because the person most likely simply beet his fleet to the kill.
If you refuse to accept this then either your definition of solo is different, which is fine, but I don't think that's what we're arguing about here. Or you're just to thick headed to accept simple logic.
This was fun, moving on now.
