I mean I am testing all the major CMS systems including Joomla, Drupal, Wordpress, E107, Geeklog and still havent decided who is the best. Each of them has its own flaws but still Druapal seems to piss me off the most.
Drupal - Is it time to shut it down??
Here Is Why Drupal Sucks Big TIme:
Their Forum is super slow, I mean even the snail moves faster. It is not because of the server, but because of the internal code of Drupal.
It does not send you email when somebody respond to your topic in Drupal forum - Hello it is 21st Century and still we have to live with mistakes like that. I mean almost every freaking forum sends you automatic notifications when you get a reply to your forum topic, almost every forum. But not freaking drupal. Drupal sleeps comfortably in its bed, smokes some weed and thinks of you people. I do not care. Why is there such a promotion of Drupal, such hype, seminars, the core team is blabbering all over the internet that Drupal is the best CMS there is. Well I tell you it is not and it will never be.
Even though if part of the MTV uses Drupal it still sucks big time. Probably those guys are considering each minute to switch to another system.
Each blog post does not have an intro. You have to add a special code to create a teaser. Every freaking blog, cms has that option, but Drupal again lies in bed, drinking beer and smoking some weed and says Fuck you all. Why is it so hard to add a small button to put an article separator like Wordpress and Joomla have. Does Drupal really like to piss people off. I mean it is probably an easy task but the core team Drupal morons dont think that that is necessary. So they added a simple option to trim each of the article and to set the trim for custom number of words. This is barbaric!!!!! How dare you. Usually people have static content not only blog posts that require the whole article to be displayed not only the intro. And if you set a teaser to kick in after custom number of character, you will get a trimmed front page article and it will look silly.
Another think in Drupal that is bothering me is that there is a link at the bottom of each blog post that is linking to www.domain.com/blog/1 and has the same content as www.domain.com/blog . Even penguins in north pole are talking about duplicate content and still Drupal morons put a link to a duplicate page under each of the blog posts.
My conclusion. I am almost done with drupal. There is no way we will see and reasonable work by these guys, They are stubborn, lazy, stupid and have no fucking idea about SEO and proper website optimization for search engines.
Why, o why isnt there a perfect CMS in the world. Each of them has flaws. Wordpress is really good, but at the same time too simple, Joomla is getting there but still is not perfect. And Drupal, well I am looking for my shovel to bury that crappy CMS in the deepest hole on the earth. Drupal you have disappointed me big time.
I totally agree, Drupal sucks giant fat fu**ing cock. I use pivotx and create custom smarty php modules. The interface is so much easier to use and is more powerful IMO.
Only cocksucking faggot gutter whore deuchebags like that piece of shit limp dick software.
Sorry if I offended you by my last comment, but something I saw on the Drupal website got me fired up:
Quote:
"... some of the newcomers are shocked. Others tuck their tails between their legs and shuffle back to reading APIs and lurking in the forums until they understand things."
I tried to use Drupal a couple of times, but the time investment required to learn the CMS just isn't worth it when you compare it to Krang or something similar. Why spend time learning something mediocre when you can invest a bit more effort and have the knowledge of a much more powerful piece of software?
Besides, I can always tell when I'm visiting a Drupal-based website by the lame-ass themes they have, the completely useless URLs, and the totally gay generic content blocks on the front pages. You shouldn't be able to tell which CMS (if any at all) is being used by a website.
That is so true' when ever i visit a site no matter how well and how good is design i can always tell is done by drupal gay cms.
i have spend one year studying drupal cms just to prove my self wrong so i can say wow drupal is the king of cms but i was wrong i just found out how shit and slow drupal is every time you install a new module you will end up with a new error. drupal is pain in the ass and i wouldn't advice anyone to go for drupal. WHAT EVER YOU DO DO NOT DOWNLOAD DRUPAL. OTHER WAYS YOU WILL END UP PULLING EVERY SINGLE HAIR.
I agree with you, Drupal is not easy to learn, I chose it because it was voted very good on some CMS voting site that I forgot what it was.
I am only using Drupal or Joomla, but more often Joomla for complex sites.
You are saying that urls are bad, but you can set them yourself, you can name each url how you want it to be.
I have never heard about Krang and the one you are using.
I use Wordpress too, but it is very simple compared to Drupal and Joomla, I know theese two are not the best, but if you know any CMS that is better I would gladly want to know about it.
It is funny how people swear at drupal. It only shows your inability to learn it properly. Ofcourse Drupal doesn just give you magic on the first time you take a glance at it. Itś too complex to learn within a day. However.... beat the steep learning curve and you can make anything, any scale.
That fu**ing deuche codes his own website? What a nerd.
Bricolage looks the most promising, I'm doing some development with it right now. I'll give you a link to a beta site in a few days, then you'll see what the fuck is up.
Yes he is a nerd, no that fucker does not know how to code, I think Lullabot made it for him, I checked Krang, but I saw only 3 addons, you see that could be bad. Joomla has around 5000 addons and big forum, also Drupal does.
The problem with addons is that they lead to generic content. Nothing new or novel about them. What I'm saying is that if you just want to create content then go with something simple, like pivotx or wordpress. Otherwise invest the time and use something that you can make exactly the way you want.
Drupal fu**ing sucks... drupal is basicaly good if you have a tiny website and have no clue how to code (php, sql, jsp, html, js)
Otherwise its like trying to play guitar with your feet.
I'm in a company that has pissed away over 1mil on trying to convert our java cms to a drupal cms, and all I can say is that drupal is like the 'green' movement... its popular because people say it is.. not becuase it is.
1. "Their Forum is super slow, I mean even the snail moves faster. It is not because of the server, but because of the internal code of Drupal."
Where is your objective proof of this or benchmark results? How large of a forum are you talking about. How many active users and did you enable other modules? This is a false statement without proof to back it up.
2. "It does not send you email when somebody respond to your topic in Drupal forum."
Again there is built in functionality in Drupal that YOU did not explore. Actions, triggers and even additional modules make this a breeze.
3. "Each blog post does not have an intro." Again this is done using either the split page function or using the cck module combined with views. Please do some research next time. On Drupal.org there are plenty of tutorials on this.

Well that was 2 years ago, now Drupal is my favourite CMS, things change, also there is a learning curve that might take some time, I might say I am an Drupal expert now. I ditched that bug infested Joomla and switched to Drupal.
I did not twitter this post, I was really frustrated with Drupal before, the forum speed just sucked so much. Now it is really reliable, but it took 3 years obviously to make me a Drupal fan
just build your own framework and cms if you are capable. drupal sucks because it replaces one SQL query with 3-20 clicks in the backend. very efficient. any cms does it like this and thats what stupid.
if i had a choice i would choose expression engine in case i would be a fu**ing non-coding-LaMeaSS
Drupal definately rocks, yes if you load it up with many modules it will get slow but it is free and so advanced copared to other CMS systems.
Coding your own thing would cost a person so much money! And why is White House using it, they have kaching, they could use hand coding anytime, but they are not.
I am quite dissapointed I wrote this article, but things change. I adore Drupal now.
Drupal isn't the problem, it's the damn module developers who release half-finished projects, distribute them, and then make requests for maintainers to fix their half-written garbage. Some of them even admit that they can't code for shit and need someone else to finish it. I'm a designer more than a developer, and need to count on what this CMS touts as being one of its most dynamic and useful qualities to complete projects. "You get what you pay for" is only an excuse for them to continue producing this crap. I get 80% done with a site only to find that one of its "few" bugs is preventing me from completing it at all. What a fu**ing waste of time.
