Rangers are not particularly desired. They don't DPS, Pull or Mitigate damage as well as a Monk can (although they'll hold hate as well as a Paladin or Shadowknight) and can fill in additional utility as needed (root parking, snaring, better-than-nothing damage shields). People also are not largely aware that Iksar Monks currently have a bigger xp penalty (44%) than rangers (40%), so they don't ostracize them from groups.
Come Velious it will become much better for rangers, they gain better solo ability thanks to Panic Animal (letting them fear kite in outdoor zones) as well as removing the xp penalty.

If MMORPG players were around when God said, "Let there be light" they'd have called the light gay, and plunged the universe back into darkness by squatting their nutsacks over it.
