Don't call me "rj" though, my name is Ryan. I'm a web developer specializing in Drupal and WordPress. I get the web... I think.
You might be wondering, if your a web developer then why does your site suck?
There's reasons:
For over a year now I have been using the WordPress.com's hosted service as opposed to self hosting my site. I just found it more convenient, since I spend more time with my clients sites than I do my own. A few weeks ago, I tried to check my site and found that WordPress suspended my account without giving any reasons why. I am sure it was some sort of mistake, but I can't really know unless they respond to my emails and support requests which they have failed to do. I try to be an understanding person. Automattic is hosting a gazillion WordPress blogs now, they probably can't be bothered with my issues. But I have to admit to be a little ticked off by this. At the very least let me have an archive of all my posts I spent countless hours writing.
I've contemplated dumping WordPress all together over this and do everything with Drupal. But my problem's have little to do with the WordPress software itself, only the wordpress.com hosted service. I'm gonna keep using WordPress, but stick to just self hosting. I probably should have done that right from the start. WordPress.org, I still love you, WordPress.com, you suck.
So I will be making a new personal website someday soon. Probably two actually, one showcasing Drupal and the other, WordPress. I'm just really busy with client work at the moment and clients come first.
