See, in my case, the tribe I wanted had an inactive admin for over a year, and 200~ members. Personally, I don't feel as though 200~ members justifies requiring a lvl 15 chief, but thats just my opinion.
Browsing through some of the comments in /t/reclaimtribe, seems that it takes a few months of inactivity for a chief to be displaced. So I see the reasoning behind someone who is more active for a longer period of time before they take over a sub. Not sure how often this could happen, but you could have a new member claim a tribe, lose interest in the site in a few days, and still be chief for months to come.
Hmm... /t/piano looks like it's got 4 members and level 1. I believe you should be able to claim it if you want.
On the other hand, /t/personalfinance had 298 members and was Level 4 last night when I tried to claim it. But it requires a Level 15 tribesperson to do so. I checked just now and it's got 345 members, which makes it Level 5, and a Level 20 tribesperson to claim it. So... it looks like it's going to be a long while before anyone claims that one, unless the rules are changed.

Yeah I guess I see your point. I feel like I could handle managing ~200 players and I'm lvl 6.

You're talking about /t/personalfinance, aren't you?
That is a problem, and one that I am actively dealing with myself.
no, /t/piano
