The problem with your article is that you claim that you spent 2 years trying to make Rails do something it wasn't meant to do... and then you don't actually explain what it was that it wasn't meant to do.
It sounds like from clues later in the article that perhaps you tried to shoehorn Rails ontop of your preexisting database which meant that all your table names, were not the correct format/naming scheme.
