One was reading people's complaints about MT in their blogs around the time I was picking a blogging engine. The biggest reason was that I wanted to use a PHP based system instead of a PERL based system since I am more comfortable hacking in PHP. At the time, b2 was petty much the best PHP/MySQL blog in town so I ended up using that. WordPress is the official branch of b2. I've been on as a contributor to WordPress for a few months now. I like the direction it is taking and (as such) feel very comfortable using it. A couple of reasons actually.
