I think that you should work up gang loyalty with something else then just being in a gang for a period of time.

Things like participating in gang wars, either defending or attacking, spending combo points repairing or use skills like engineering has with attack planning or construction with the defense. I believe stuff like that should build up gang loyalty, so if you have to leave the gang for a bit, you can just be active in gang affairs to build up gang loyalty again. So that you can faster reap the benefits you might've helped build up.
