MT sucks goat balls: September 2007 Archives

If you use Movable Type and are thinking of upgrading to the new 4.0 version - don't do it if you want to keep your old stuff intact and accessable.

MT says that you can install over your old installation and import your old blog entries. They lied. Once installed the import faq says something along the lines of 'helping you spring clean and start over fresh' which really means we screwed you over and told a lie to get you to upgrade your blogging software - our bad.

I am so very angry at this moment. The only way to have all of the past content available is to import it 1 post at a time manually.

That is so not funny. If I didn't already hate wordpress so much I wouldn't even begin to use MT again.

I have this fabulous love-hate relationship with MT and right now I am hating it. I also want a divorce from it and refuse to kiss it goodnight. Nor will I show it any good manners today. For now I wouldn't donate a plug nickle to that six-apart outfit if they gave me a dollar to give them a nickle in exchange.
