What's the deal? I come onto read the boards, and most of it lately has been flaming and belittleing. And it has been from some of the poeple I would absolutely least expect. Are we being reduced to the next bh/jedi? Damn I hope not. The Ranger community has been the standard for Honor, Integrity, and Professionalismeven through all the crap we have had to put up with. We've been strong and stuck together through it all. We shared and discussed ideas even when they may have made no sense at all, and when they didn't we gave our constructive criticism. Look at us now. Someone expresses an opinion and they get slammed. Then it all turns into a argument over a video game. I know things now are tough and there are people who are stressing about possible upcoming changes...I would too, but damn its wrong to let one thing change who we are.

It's been trying times..... I hope for the storm to settle. I guess we have been waiting for something good for so long that we want to make sure we are not nerfed down to the ground with the upcoming publish. Emotions are bound to emerge throughout that process... it's called extreme frustration.

When we see all the great constructive ideas that pops out of our Forum, and we see our profession at risk for additional nerf. A lot of us will go postal... For me Apathy sets in.


I see no bright future for us. It's all about business; The demand is low (we are few). From a business perspective there's no "rush" to meet any of our requirements, it isn't economically feasible.


Jedi, is the golden child, after that it's PvP and the combat professions. You'll see that I'm right, I predict SL to be getting a nice revamp before we even get ours (if we get one).


Am I pessimistic, hell yeah.... when I couldn't tan my own hide it awoke the beast inside of me

I can't growl, and it hurts to make evil eyes.... ROFL, I'm such a softie


By the way... It'll be my 20th B-day tomorrow (Yaaaay, I'll get my Mini Mac tomorrow !!!)

Well first off happy early birthday. I hope you have a good one. I understand completely the frustration involved. I guess im just trying to say thatnoone should let one thing take away your identity. It just isn't worth it. I am the same way on the pesimism thing. I am the type of person that has to see it to believe it, but there has to be a line drawn somewhere, and to me it just isn't worth getting so bent out of shape that a community forgets who they are.

It comes and goes in waves on these forums. We are seeing a large influx of tracking 4 rangers because of the belief we are the big monkey makers. This added to the general feeling of apathy from the devs tends to make us a little unsettled. Plus that theres been no public news about the CURB or the role Rangers will play in it.


But its a phase we all go through we'll grow out of it.

Totally 5*'s. The lot of you.


Big old frustration / aggression cycle. We get frustrated that the thingy isn't wotsit, get a bit miffed, someone else gets frustrated that the thingy is doodah so they get miffed too, then cos we have nobody else to get miffed AT we turn in on ourselves.

It'll pass. Things will move on. It is, after all, just a game.

Just don't move my cheese.

The frustration is high, but taken at face value the bonus to harvesting bonus due to a Ranger being in te group shows that they are at least giving us a nod. I'll take it even if it doesn't benefit my play style.


Also we need to stay cohesive through this. We have goe through worse and we have always hoped for better. I blame you guys for making me return to this dang game.
