Greetings All,
I just got my alternate character to Novice Ranger yesterday, and so far I'm having a blast with it. I've read through a few of the posts here and it sounds like the Ranger profession is ignored. I've seen some of the ideas of what could be added to the Ranger profession to give more usefulness or content, and I would like to toss out a couple ideas that may or may not have been covered. I don't claim to know the profession, but these are some things that I think of when I think of what Rangers should be able to do.
Fishing Nets - Any Novice Artisan can craft a fishing pole to catch a fish here or there. But, how about Rangers being able to craft large nets to toss into the rivers, lakes, and oceans to catch larger amounts of fish.
Harvesting - How about allow Master Rangers to harvest more than one resource from larger animals. It's a bit unrealistic, for a master of harvesting, to kill a Fambaa and only be able to harvest meat, bone or hide. Plus at Master Ranger you don't need xps anymore, so it's not an expliot.
Camps - I've seen people here upset that the only reason to drop a camp anymore is for auto healing, if you don't have a medic with a droid. I would love to see a camp, even if you can't get it until Master Ranger, that can heal BF, or allow an entertainer to heal BF. Maybe a camp that treats everyone in the camp like they have /maskscent on.
Master Rangers seem to be pretty rare on my server, as I know only 2 of them (and 1 I think quit the game). But I have a friend of mine that is climbing the Ranger profession with me, and we are both having fun with it so far. I look forward to any advice that you can offer to a Ranger in training.
Thank You,
- Ivoe

With all the master rangers burning out and leaving us every week, it's refreshing to actually see new blood coming into the ranger community. I hope you have a lot of patience and are trulyself-reliant: the great irony is that rangers were supposed to be the ultimate self-reliant character in the game because they don't need to return to the city for weeks at a time... to some extent that's true but it's more true that rangers' players must be self-reliant in that we provide our own content for the game instead of relying on the devs to give it to us. Anyway, welcome, I hope you enjoy your stay.
Good hunting.

Welcome to the club! Might I suggest you post your ideas in the related Focus threads? I plan on directing the powers that be to the individual focus threads.
