How to form a pre-made on your realm..?

[Darkoan]

Anyone give me any tips? I successfully built a pre-made for WSG in the 30-39 bracket. What I did was just /who 39, start right clicking names and whispering "Sorry to bother you, I am forming a WSG 39 raid and was hoping you'd be interested in joining. This is a WSG holiday weekend, offering bonus honor. Will you help us crush the Horde!?" then /who 38, whispering with the same message through the list, /who 37, /who 36. After going through the 39,38,37 and 36 list I had about 7 players rounded up. Then I started over again, TRYING not to hit the same people again, by memory, even so I modified my whisper to: "Apologies if I've already spammed you once, we have a WSG 39 raid and only need a couple more to fill it out, would you be interested in joining us?". I noticed some ignore messages popping up, which just sucks, this is my main and I don't want to be /ignored by folks.

Then after a match or two we started losing people and I'd have to spam again. Anyway, curious for any tips to build pre-mades. I was planning to farm a LOT of honor in the 30-39 bracket as I am a druid and its a niche level for us.

Many thanks in advance!

my suggestion, Start a guild, and make it a PVP guild. Make sure EVERYBODY in the guild is aware that this will be a primarily PVP guild. It may take some time to get enough people in your guild that play on a regular basis and that are at the required levels. If you get new people that just started, help them level. it will show good faith on your part and a desire to help. They will more likely to stay in the guild and be loyal to you. This may take time, but a little dedication on your part will go a long way. Once you have a solid guild, you will know everybody and how they play/fight. You can discuss stratigies in guild chat, set up a guild Ventrilo account to talk on and be way more orginized. This is the best way to set up a pre-made. After a while, you will notice that you all can almost read each others minds and react to want each other is about to do, before they do it. You will be a well oiled machine. If you try to go around your city and get random invites, this does not equal a pre-made, it's a PUG with players from the same realm. Nobody really knows each other and how they fight. They will still be in it for there own good, not the good of the team.
