Best MU Blogging component? Joomblog 2.3 problems (no support) - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

hey wondering multi-user blogging component guys recommend.  don't idea of joomblog 3.0x because read somewhere makes permanent , irreversible changes, along having many other problems.

i run latest version of joomla! on site.  had read many people liked joomblog 2.3, tried install , kinds of errors:

backend error:
db function failed error number 1136
column count doesn't match value count @ row 1 sql=insert ignore `jos_joomblog_blog` select c.*, 1, 0 jos_content c inner join jos_users u on u.id = c.created_by u.usertype='registered'

frontend error:
table \'bmcconn_joom2.jos_joomblog_blog_users\' doesn\'t exist sql=select * jos_joomblog_blog_users userid=\'62\'

module errors:
db function failed error number 1146
table 'bmcconn_joom2.jos_joomblog_blog_users' doesn't exist sql=insert ignore jos_joomblog_blog_users (userid, block, register_date, moderator) select id, 0, now(), 0 jos_users block=0

table \'bmcconn_joom2.jos_joomblog_blog_users\' doesn\'t exist sql=select * jos_joomblog_blog_users userid=\'62\'

you point.  tried around, , thought maybe 2.3 wasn't compatible 1.0.11, i'm not sure...

my second thought previous installation of joomblog 3.0 stable has somehow messed my  site? (i didn't read reveiws until after install, , disappointed anyway component.)

my third thought see guys think problem 2.3, maybe work...

my fourth thought, find alternative , guys opinions , suggestion on one.


so maybe if don't know 1 of questions answer one?!?

thanks alot,

bryan

also i've tried getting support joomblog (joomlafreesoftware) it's not happening...
