Thread: Why are you a Ranger?
I guess I still have hope for the future. I am the eternal optomist.
I gravitated toward ranger because I generally don't like anybody. The lone hunter who comes in from the wilds now and again to sell his harvests seemed like fun. I've grown as a person, though, and now I generally don't like anybody but rangers.

This is one of the few forums devoid of moronic whining snivelers. Well for the most part.
That's why. And the fact we can make tons of money killing stuff.

I tried several other proffessions on different servers. I liked pistoleers and i really had fun with smuggler. Then I tried Bounty Hunter and even tho it was bugged I had a blast, this was back when you had to master scout to become BH, so I already had alot of scout xp....thought taking some Ranger skills would help...like tracking...and it did help......alot....then the BH bugs got worse and a guild mate helped me choose between going ranger or all combat...Once I chose Ranger...it was like finding my niche...I really liked scout so this was like "Super Scout"...I love everything about being a ranger...the bugs can be a pain...but I can live with them.....The hunting , tracking, harvesting and yes even the camping......I find myself logging on and just heading out for a hunt...I will track, trap, kill, harvest and then sit in a nice big camp and craft some more traps or reflect on what I had just done...
After Mastering Ranger on my main server....i wanted to do it again...so i started a new character and traveled the non-respec'n path. I find that now playing on a server with other rangers has made me love the profession even more. Rangers seem to be some of the best people to talk to and hunt with..even x-rangers still have alot of the qualities i find pleasant in this game.

because of the people. there's nobody else in the game like the Rangers I've met in-game and on the forums. I changed servers to hang out with some of them. THAT's why I'm still a Ranger.
also, eternal optimist.
