A reset will be required when alterations are made to fix the economy. For sure.
It seems to me... that if people are complaining about players being rich (Is that what players are complaining about?) then heres the issue.
Its to easy to get rich. If a player becomes rich in a game like Era, they earned and deserve it. Whats the problem? Unless its not a real accomplishment becoming rich in the first place.
Maybe you could put a tax on players businesses if they make over a certain large amount/Month. That’s just making it harder next time around for the rich guy to get ridiculously rich.

If guns don’t stay in the game permanently the cost to purchase them will go up. You could also make it so a player is only able to keep a max of one of each gun in their inventory (including lockers and whatever else methods of storing your goods Era has). There shouldn’t be a lot of pricey, powerful weapons in the economy anyway. Make those harder to obtain.

Make the less expensive weapons (that the poor players use) long lasting. The more expensive ones shouldn't last as long anyway in reality. The more high-tech equipment thats on a gun, the more likely chance that its going to break.

No, the broken guns are removed from gameplay entirely.
I think its also obvious that there needs to be some sort of co-operation between the Zodiac and Era staff to effectively deal with the cross-server trading issue. Its pretty easy on Zodiac to obtain Era items...
