It's often been said - correctly - that having a higher-than-0.0 security status gives you no real advantage (by which I mean you gain no reward for having a 0.1+ sec status).
The disadvantages of having progressively lower security statuses are well known, but there should be an advantage (a reward, if you like) for having a higher security status. (Yes, I'm also aware that you need to be able to gain a higher security status at a greater rate than the mechanics currently allow, but that's not what this thread is about.)
What I would like to see here is suggestions about what advantages could/should be gained from having a higher security status.
I would think - from a semi-RP POV - that having some greater advantage with CONCORD might be appropriate, though exactly what that might be I'm unsure (CONCORD support if you get attacked in 0.1-04? Heheh j/k  ).
I'd be interested in what the community sees as 'acceptable' rewards for being (on the face of it, at least) a 'good person'...

what if they made meta-mods only useable dependent on your sec status. the better the mod the higher the sec status needed to use it.
Thought they would also have to make some meta's that where only useable with neg sec status also, just to keep things fair.

Having a high sec status doesnt make you a good person, it makes you a good farmer.

Many months ago I suggested similar ...
regardless of Farming (minor % inc IMO) there should be a reward for positive standing , and I also suggested a "reward" for getting near or bang on 10 for an agent (if possible).
We need goals to strive for.....and of course rewards add motivation....reseasonable rewards .....er not Shuttle Bp..
What I would like to see here is suggestions about what advantages could/should be gained from having a higher security status.
Suggestion :
Level implemented bonus skills :
1.0 sec status means u get a skills called Peacemaker.
This skill should be like a diplomatic skill that gets you a Social Bonus.
2.0 sec status could be a skill called Ambassador that would get a increase in dealing with other races....might help counteract the neg ratings u often get with killing Detecitves and Scouts
But these skills shouldnt be trainable in a sense...Level 1 u get at sec status 1.0...leve 2 at status 2 etc....
I know this reads as garbage...but somewhere there is the idea that u dont just get a skill and then train it ...you earn it ...

I agree, for the most part - hence the last line of my original post (and my comment about needing better mechanics to raise security status).
Having said that, most of my sec status (currently at 3.1) came from doing CONCORD missions or bribing them.

Having a low sec status does not make you a good person either....we talking about rewards for high sec status 
Ooops...almost forgot, I would like to see some rewards for high sec status.

Having a bad sec rating doesnt make you a bad person, it makes you a good pc farmer.
If we give advantages to good sec rating people in Empire space, we need to give advantages to low sec rating in Pirate Empires.
This would be a killer descussion.

If you have a very high sec status you can afford to kill one person and still be positive after that.
