As it stands it will always be 2-3 gangs with all the best players and slim pickins for the rest.

We were totally gonna do a Gang draft at one point, I completely forgot about that and don't really remember what happened to the idea.. it was when I put Wil as GBA, I remember having the meetings with the gang leaders and trying to get together legit people to do it.
That was a very short time-frame (like a week) until Wil stepped down cause Zeyo/Trak (the Cancers of Era) and Tonk kept undermining everything and Globals wouldn't allow me to give him actual staff rights. The idea (among others) was really legitimate; there was comment files and everything if I recall. Had the usual goons Blue and Alfo helping make all the tangible stuff.
Kinda miss when stuff actually got done on Era. Since Fidel & I left it's just stagnated with the same 10 staff doing absolutely nothing over the past year+. Don't even see PWA anymore, forums included.
Poor Era.

On topic, I'd prefer if you set the limit back to 10 then gave the additional slots as rewards to gangs that earn them.. could have one earnable by points, one by winning x events, killing x players, winning x weeks, etc. There's already nothing left for us to do and you just switched back to the system the other month... where is my auto-turret idea? does the gang shop even function anymore?
There's already too many trash tier gangs that aren't monitored at all. None of the original rules of the 'make your own' system apply cause it was just casually reverted in a failed attempt to make one of Benny's terrible GBA runs less terrible (along with endlessly recycling
content I made). Gangs that get 0 points in one week, two, five? need to be gone. There's too many slots wasted already for you to just give free extra ones to
every single gang.
Just my thoughts. Do something more than change one number in one DB. Try.
