No, it wasn't you :-) I needed a change, and WordPress really is better suited to straight blogging. Which is all I wound up doing on my souped-up Drupal blog anyway. I'm still using Drupal on every project at work, so I'm not going anywhere. And I'm sure appreciating Drupal's strengths, now that I'm also faced with how WordPress does things. No Menus. No Blocks (widgets are a joke/hack). No content types. No views. etc... But it's good for blogging. Heya, Christoph!

I just couldn't get them to behave properly, constantly borking my layout and having to hand-tweak them anyway. But the feeling is probably exacerbated from mentoring a class full of newbies through the process this last semester :) I also don't upgrade my theme very often at all... when I do it's generally a wholesale change, so integration of hand-code isn't such a problem! Have you checked out honeypot.org as a potential help with spammers? Between akismet and honeypot (soon to be built into bad behavior plugin as well), spam noise has gone way down...
