First of all i understand why capital ships like carriers, dreads and titans are not allowed in high sec, and the only jump capapble capital ships are the jumpfreighters , what i don't really understand why we can not use our jumpdrives in highsec to jump to another high sec and can't find a thread that explains why.
jumpfreighters are a rare sight they have a huge price tag, their skillrequirements are steep, not as steeps as other capitals but still a few months of training and their cargo is limited compared to their t1 version
I am not asking that we can jump unlimited in high sec. Maybe install a minimum faction standing requirement or something similair
Before you start complaining thatevery ship needs to be vulnerable to suicide ganks ,in my opinion a jump freighter already is pretty well gank proof when you stay in high sec
So just wondering why not ?

Eve small enough as it is, don't really need insta jumps around.
Plus lag...crowded systems like trade hubs, prime time you'd have grid problems galore. Take jita's usual population, add in cyno alts in ships. then throw in the hot dropped jf's. This would make a jf not so gank proof worst case (nothing like seeing you take damage and you can't do a damn thing about it when you can't pull grid, been there...not fun).
Also no ship is gank proof. If motivated enough, they pop. even in empire. A war dec makes things easier, but some of the wilder .5 systems have seen a few freighter class km's without them lol.

A JF is far from gank proof against WT's. And no, no jumping into high sec.

As far as I know the only thing keeping caps out of high sec is: 1. You can't build them there anymore. 2. You can't open a cyno there.

All for this idea.
And I have to wonder how many that respond can fly a jump freighter or have an alt that can ?

Maybe if you minimum faction standing you could use some gateway thingeis usable by JFs, that would be like 1 per region or contellation?
No, I can't fly JF

Maybe a special cyno generator module at your highsec POS that you can jump to with your jump freighter if you are within jump range. Maybe it would have a standing requirement that you would have to maintain to keep it online (no more fee based setups). Perhaps 7.0 standing or something ridiculous like that )

You can't jump in highsec because highsec is cynojammed by the empires to the point that no pod pilot can jump in highsec space to prevent capital ships from entering highsec space controlled by a pod pilot.
Only empire NPC's can do such jumps from npc factions as shown in trailers such as from the great capital standoffs from each empire only empire capital ships are allowed based off of the stories and we only see them do this from within the story, never in game.
