Should jumpgates in hisec be restricted by sec status?

just as an example:

-10 unable to activate anything leading into .5 and above
-9 unable to activate anything leading into .6 and above
-8 unable to activate anything leading into .7 and above
-7 unable to activate anything leading into .8 and above
-6 unable to activate anything leading into .9 and above

Dosen't matter what you are in, pod or not, you just can't activate the gate.

Why would Concord allow an outlaw into hisec at all? You want to come in, go kill a bunch of of stuff for us first to prove we can trust you.

Or an alternative Concord could let the -10ers jump in then podkill them on sight. I mean really they are supposed to be the worst of the worst.

You can still go gank the noob in his shiny new hulk, but you can't do it 200 times in a row without concord saying enough is enough. Well at least until you go kill a bunch of rats for us first :P

no, for that to be an oxymoron it would be a newb in his hulk.

II. Defining 'Noob'
Contrary to the belief of many, a noob/n00b and a newbie/newb are not the same thing. Newbs are those who are new to some task* and are very beginner at it, possibly a little overconfident about it, but they are willing to learn and fix their errors to move out of that stage. n00bs, on the other hand, know little and have no will to learn any more. They expect people to do the work for them and then expect to get praised about it, and make up a unique species of their own. It is the latter we will study in this guide so that the reader is prepared to encounter them in the wild if needed.

No. Hi sec PVP should stop being nerfed. This isn't Wendy-house-online, right?

Why should CONCORD be able to respond to capsuleer aggression with overwhelming, unstoppable force in seconds yet be unable to clear pirate frigates from the belts, or pirate battleships from highsec missions, proceeding to instead pay missioners ridiculous amounts of bounties to do it for them?

Basically try again, but this time try to convince us not by some arbitrary definition of "realism" in a game with so many holes in such but with an argument of why this would make eve online a more interesting game to play.

(Not that I think making hisec even safer would be at all good for the game, but at least you'd be arguing in a somewhat grounded manner!)

No.

I approve of this idea.
And to simplify traffic control can move the person to the appropriate security the next time they log in.

Besides what is wrong with ratting?
You make ISK while doing it and unless you get stuck in one system (to which I will say plan better and bla blah I'll take all your stuff, yes), you can get your sec status back in 2 days of minor work or a few hours if serious.
Also dont you guys already work primarily in .5 sec, go after even fewer targets due to buffs and now global flags, and bump now because you cant find something better to make people rage over for 17.50 a month?
Like getting really good at a COD game and listen to the sweet sweet vulgar tears of those you crush?

Yea we shouldn't be allowed anywhere tbh, never mind high sec.

Do I get a prize or something for agreeing?

If players with negative security status can't get into hisec, why would pirate NPCs be able to?

Well because just like stations, NPC ships are better of course. Are you sure you understand how this game works right now?

Pilots with low sec status are already flagged for PvP when they enter hisec. You can shoot them with no consequences from CONCORD because the pilot is blinky red.

We don't need any extra mechanisms to keep pirates out of hisec. Losing access to NPC stations when you upset them greatly would be a good idea, perhaps (e.g.: if you are a mission runner and have severely bad standings with Amarr, why would you be allowed to dock at their stations?)

Losing the ability to travel just because you're -10 is insane: how will a pirate leave hisec after a suicide gank?
