One thing a good area team on my server has been doing is selling their arena points. Heres how it works.
First thing you going to need is skill, and lots of it to get your arena team up to 1900+. Basically what you do is advertise on your realms forum that you are selling 5 people to join your 5v5 arena team to play and get your rating up for *** amount of gold a week per person. All the clients have to do is play the required amount of games to get the points at the end of the week. Once that is done you and your 4 buddies take over and work their teams rating as high as you can for the week. Once the week is over the 5 clients get the points and you get the points plus so and so amount of gold. you can make alot of money this way and all it takes is a day or so to work their team.
Good luck guys
