Thread: I'd like to say I'm a Master Ranger and proud.
myth, if you wouldn't mind postingin the "if you are leaving" thread, it might actually come to some good... i understand you may not be leaving the profession but it might as well be our all purpose disastifaction thread...
it can be really disheartening to the rangers and eventhe wanna-be rangers to see these posts... since we all pretty much have the same complaints, we might as well keep it under one thread.. this also allows those who know they don't want to read it to avoid it...
i really hate that we have enough people posting to warrant a thread for it...
thanks
Ever heard the term "things will get worse before they get better"? I used to believe in that, but now I'm not so sure about the last part. You think Ranger is going to have any role to play in the Space Expansion? I don't think so either.
I feel the urge to say "Someone get the forks ready, I'm almost done!" But not just yet.

i would have but i'm not leaving the profession... yet.
Call me masochistic.
So much potential... and they keep going in the opposite direction.

That's not very nice.
People become Rangers for many reasons, not just the ones you listed and some *do* like to make money and/or be "powerful" (whatever that means in a game where cookie-cutter templates change from publish to publish).
These "rough" times have been going on a for a very *long* time. Check out the date on the Holocron post stuck at the top of this forum. Check to see what's been done since that post. At some point you do have to stand up and be heard. That time is fast approaching for me, I'm tired of seeing the amount of work and effort by Rangers on these forums go to complete waste because we are not a priority, aren't popular, and aren't very "Star Wars"-y.
And be honest, the Ranger forum is a sea of tranquility in regards to content when compared with some other professon forums that I will not name.

look.. if you are a novice ranger, with skill points that i don't have anymore, spread out over different profs, then don't tell a master ranger jack about what the profession is about. or what the shortcomings are.
At this point there is virtually zero difference between a novice scout and a master ranger. All I (we) want is some abilities that are useful as a profession.. not necessarily something to make money off of.

Same though has crossed my mind. Hopefully, it will not come to pass.
They have done nothing to disprove that theory.
I think some psychegroup has paid SOE tosee how long we will stay Master of an almost completely useless profession.
Only thing we have left is our tracking. Won't be long before that will be slapped onto a droid as well.
