RP Reason:
Because High Sec is the sovereignty of one of the four main races in EVE. Any player owned capital ship in high sec would be seen as an attack on that sovereignty.

Because there's no need for them. Because it creates differentiation between the sec levels. Because they hadn't buffed CONCORD at the time. ——— “If you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡… you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.” — Karath Piki |

Because it was abused. Wasn't a corp/alliance banned because of this?

this game mechanic allows beginning players to thrive and be able to survive without being camped in by carriers/dreads/motherships/titans. imagine just starting out, undocking for the first time and getting wtfpwnd by someone in a carrier spider tanked gange. would make the game unplayable in the beginning.
game balance for new and old players is the reason.
why would you want to bring caps to highsec anyways? _________________________________________________ Aurora Security is recruiting

Who knows. I, for one, could do with a Veldnaught.
Also, there would be a new meaning to the words "EVE is a cold, unforgiving universe". Hell, EVE University or PvP-teaching corps could procure a Titan, take a class of new pilots to undock en masse, and Doomsday their asses into oblivion two seconds after that.
"That was your first lesson, dudes. They're out to get you, and they're meaner, bigger and richer than you".
Beat that for a hard lesson.
Other than that, I can't say. http://www.geocities.com/vagrantweapons/db.jpg |

Fly to Amarr
Wait for Chribba to log in
See the Veldnaught* if he undocks it
*For the new players, the Veldnaught (a Dreadnaught) is one of the few High-Sec Capital ships dating back to when caps were first introduced in the game and could be built in High Sec space. These high-sec capital ships are required by CCP to NEVER fire a weapon in anger in high sec (they are allowed there ONLY as eye candy for new players basically). Doing so will get them transported directly to low/null sec by CCP. Chribba is famous for his love of Veldspar Mining in the Veldnaught (thus it's name).

Wasn't there also some RP element claiming that supercaps weren't allowed in highsec etc because they were so massive they messed with the tides of nearby planets etc?

I wish a CCP employee would do this just once on April 1st 2010. Fly 6 titans to Jita 4-4 and set off 6 DD's. Then after the chaos on the forum make everything role back to a few seconds before

Aren't all the high sec systems cyno jammed by the empires or concord to prevent attack from each other? And as a by product, stops capsuleers bringing their caps in too. Seems to be as logical a reason as any from an RP perspective.
Same way that in reality you can buy weaponry of some sort in most countries, but they have problems with assault rifles and weapons grade uranium.

According to the storyline (available somewhere on the site), once a dreadnought came too close to a hisec planet and the gravitational force upset its ecosystem. Billions starved.

A side effect of this is that since you can't light cyno beacons inside hi-sec people with very expensive jump freighters have to jump to a low-sec system next to empire and then use gates like everyone else.

If you look into the eve chronicles, there are a few places stating why capitals are not allowed into high sec. 1. Concord cat does not approve of them. 2. Titans have such a massive gravitational pull, it affects weather/ocean patterns if they get to close to a planet. Hence why the caldari titan at luminare is so far away from the planet. But this also doesnt make any sense as it contridicts chronicle lore.
3. As stated above, do you really want carriers, titans and veldnaughts outside jita 4-4 or capital battles in high sec, high population centers?

But concord has been buffed so much that it wouldn't matter anymore,since even a dreadnaught gets pawned in less than 30 secs...I tried it on the test server.
So from a gameplay perspective,there's no reason not to anymore,and personally,it would be kimda fun trying to take out that caldari titan parked in luminaire,which supposedly has 99% resists to all damage types...just a thought though.

QFT. Pod Pilots are utterly insane immortal gods, that's why we have CONCORD to WTFBBQ any pod pilot out of line, and do not interfere with non pod pilots, which is why they do not shoot rats, and why they Empires do not allow Pod Pilot Caps.
I mean, when Non-Pod Caps can go around flying into stations, imagine what an insane immortal guy will do.

Then there's another point to allow at least dreads in high sec....Wars,and the every growing amount of hostile high sec POS's that may need to be taken out in such an eventuality.
If POS's were still restricted to low sec empire or 0.0,it wouldn't be an issue of course.

Taking them into .6 and lower systems would not have that much of a impact as far as I can see and be kinda cool actually, and also only allow 1 or 2 in system with a corp that had the right standings for that faction of space, maybe have the corp appy for a "High-Sec Captiol Lisence" using ISK and LP points, just a though Ara |
