@Tiamat: the “build was too fast” was quite the dilemma with WP 2.3, and I’d like to think they learned from that. WP 2.5 was quite a change from that WP 2.3 horror, even WP 2.6.

I actually appreciate the efforts the WP team put into finding ways to improve this blogging platform. It’s not that they were fixing things that weren’t broken, they just wanted to improve those stuff more, a continuous improvement kind of mindset. It just so happens that other bugs are sure to occur after the whole testing process (and after the version has been released), which some users have to burden. With big changes come big bugs, and that’s exactly what happened in WP 2.3, with the major changes they did.

And to be fair to Wordpress, I do think that they’re working on the shortcomings you’ve mentioned. Bugs are just really inevitable, and I don’t want to put the blame too much on the Wordpress peeps. All of them want WP to become as bug-free as possible, but that’s an impossible feat to attain. Not all people will receive the new flashy features in Wordpress, that’s for sure, but with that, users have the option of sticking to the old version

WP is still the easiest platform to use though, and i hope that they realise flashy bells and whistle aren’t needed, and never were.

And yeah i looked at MT for a while, bt it’s so confusing to install lol. WP is click click done, so simple and easy!!

If MT ever got like that, then i think i’d look at them again

@hazy: and that’s what I thought too. Glad I made it in before this whole registration ends Oh! If you’re going to attend this I might be able to give you the TS shirt or something hehehe

A lot of the plugin designers (such as spam kama) have thrown in the towel as well. The updates are full of bloatware and the new design for the back end is still a pain in the rear to use and dosent work properly.

Shame they couldn’t follow the old adage: if it’s not broken don’t fix it!!

Interesting theme by the way

@MiGs: wai, sweet! thanks!!
