It depends who you ask, some are willing to rebuild, others are just done.
The tricky thing about rebuilding right now, even leaving aside the internal politics and personalities, is that we had made it very far into the game, and when you have to rebuild a group and get a bunch of new players like that, you have to drop back and re-do a lot of earlier bosses. Some would be willing to do that, others would find it too boring and leave for greener pastures.
Another choice is to wait for the next expansion to the game, which basically lets you start fresh with a completely new sequence of bosses. Only trouble is that's not due to happen until November at the earliest, and by that time folks may have scattered to the four winds.
But in some ways it's comparable to HP fandom, where people would often drift away between books but turn up again for new canon. Even the three people who already quit, left saying "maybe we'll see you in the next expansion". :P
