I actually started out as a Percy fan. That scene in SoM when Percy listed his insecurities on Circe's island was one of my favourites in PJO, because it made Percy seem more human. HoO ruined that for me, because Percy was suddenly this good-looking, charming, all-powerful guy that everyone liked. No, I don't have jealousy issues because he is after all a fictional character. But that, for me, wasn't the essence of Percy Jackson. He had a bit of everyone in the original series, which is why the sudden change to the Percy we see in HoO was a bit off-putting. Jason, on the other hand, is the complete opposite. He started out as this Gary Stu-like character, but as HoO progressed, Jason started to show the more "human" side of him. Best example would be in HoH during Nico's confession scene. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm Team Jason more then I am Team Percy.
