Ok, your first question is, "Who the hell am I?", well don't worry about it. Let's just say I'm a concerned party. All you really need to know is that I'm here to help you out. You wanna get this place back on it's feet. You've already taken care of some of the basics, you've got a site up, not updated yet, but nonetheless it is up.

You've contacted as many old members as you could think of, which is great, but you're gonna need more people, especially if not very many come back. People are what is going to drive this revival to succeed. With this in mind, it's time to start recruiting. Now, most every unaffiliated battle.net player is used to someone trying to recruit them, so you really have to have some tact going into this. You're gonna have to start hitting the public games, and just game with people, and if you find someone you enjoy gaming with, then invite them. But, as previously mentioned, people are use to this. So, as an answer to that problem, offer an "open-ended" invitation. What I'm getting at here is that more than you need registered members, you need a gaming community. So tell them that they're more than welcome to join, but if they don't really want to, then ask them if they'd like to game with Camelot anyway and be listed as a friendly player. Remember, they may change their mind after gaming here for a while, anyway. A good gaming community will always attract more members.

Best of luck,
Semper Fi,
The Wolf

P.S.-Consider me a friendly player.
