Many people complain about WordPress whereas their problem lies with their webhoster. Or with a newly installed plugin. Webhosters typically change their file protection settings without telling you. Or they change the settings of their Apache server or their php.ini settings. You first have to rule all that out before you start blaming WordPress. And good luck with your finding a better blog platform. I couldn’t find one yet.

Some other factors, which are beyond the control of the WordPress include:
-indiscriminate use of plugins by the users.
-indiscriminate use of themes by the users.
-indiscriminate tweaking of the theme’s templates.
-messing with the WordPress “Core Files”.
-Not reading/following Documentation.
-Not seeking professional help when necessary.
-using webhosts or servers not equipped to install and run WordPress properly.
-Restrictions/limitations of servers.
-Not properly validating websites to resolve markup and CSS errors.
-Not willing to learn with patience.
-Expecting everything in a ready-made package free.
-Moving WordPress or changing the URL without following the codex guides
