well, even though you think you're arguing against what I said, you're giving me the reason: WP is an ENGINE to do ANYTHING you may dream of. As for your points:

If you can find some to hire than that would be an option.

personally I don't need anyone, but usually successful companies hire competent people in order to get the best for their business. It's called Business 101

- 1001 mod makers, some stop, some got hacked, a lot not updated

yes, you're right. Then again, I don't think it's a problem to have 1000+ mods (I think you fell extremely short) as opposed to have... 0.


- lay out sucks


I might agree here, although the default one is pretty decent IMHO. The beauty of WP is you have a couple million layouts to choose from. If you think those layouts suck, then... YOU CAN DO YOUR OWN!!!! (as opposed to be constrained to a few customization options like in 99.99% of scripts)


- To much work for what you get out of the box

The point is nobody mentioned a good "out of the box" script, while WP is, hands down, 1000x times better than ANY other script. You might need to tune up? Maybe. But think about this: a) MAYBE you won't need to change it, depending on your needs ; b) YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO DO IT!!!!! (as opposed as you get some crap and bear with it) and last but not least: I don't know of ANY successful company that uses "out of the box" solution, they all have needs and requests that need customization. Off the helve scripts are for people who doesn't have any special request. Again, Business 101. It's like saying " I found this great amazing office for rent, the price is incredible, the location is perfect, but I don't like the paint color, so... IT SUCKS!"



- So money mods that it is hard to find a good one


Again, yet you have them. And nobody is pressing you to use them!


- You can get a F1 with less trouble in less time.

Really? Show me!


- It is like that old Mambo Community. Nice if it works, a hell to update it.

WP is a hell to update? You really lost me here, if your idea of "hell" is clicking a link and wait 5 to 10 seconds I really don't know what to say


I think if you would hire someone, use Drupal.

Well, you might tell this bunch of retards about Drupal, it seems they missed the memo
