followers can only add comments to a commented item.
in GR most of my followers that are added on a commenting group dont have the ability to comment on an item if i did not comment. the silly workaround that im using now is to place a dummy comment on every item i share

Inappropriate?OP here,
i noticed that the problem does not happpen on some followers that are on my chat group -
-
Inappropriate?This shouldn't be happening. Are only some followers in the sharing group experiencing this problem, or is everyone in the group unable to comment unless you comment? Also, are you sure you've shared the post first?

Inappropriate?Brian
some are allowed to add a comment even if the items are not commented before. the majority is experiencing it. are you experiancing it?. you are already on my coworkers group that has commenting ability. my shared items ar at http://www.google.com/reader/view/#st.../user%2F06209096757327730374%2Fstate%2Fcom.google%2Fbroadcast
yes im sure the items are shared.
btw the problem is not just on my account. im also noticing that i cant comment on some items of some users -

Inappropriate?I am additionally having this problem, and yet both the friend and I are in each others' "Friends" groups.

+1 Same thing as Brian. -
Inappropriate?sometimes, it can be solved by adding people to gtalk contacts.
but that's still too weird invite some guys you don't really know
they kept asking why I added them.
I’m confused
-
Inappropriate?Brien shih, any luck in reproducing the bug. as you can see many many people are suffering from this. and the comment view is all messed up since eveyone is now putting fake comments
ignore my first reply. its not true. i have chat friends that are not able to comment without an existing comment -
Inappropriate?Weird, this only seen to happen for some people. I am following almohssensami (Sami) and he has to add a comment for me to comment on his shares.
However, I am also following Kaveh Yazdifard and he doesn't need to add a comment for me to comment. I've added two pics (one from Sami's shares and the other from Kaveh's share). In both share they did not add a comment.
I’m Confused

Inappropriate?We looked into it and were able to reproduce it for some users / friends, so it's definitely a real bug. I don't have an update at the moment for a fix, but we're working on it.

Inappropriate?Apparently I have the bug too. Kaveh just told me that he cannot comment on my uncommented shares.
I’m sad
-
Inappropriate?hope there is an update on this serious bug.
i started putting dummy comments two weeks ago but that was messing everyones comment view. so i had to stop. is there another work around for this -
Inappropriate?We've been looking into this some - we don't have a fix yet, but it appears to possibly be related to having duplicate contacts. For any person that this seems to be happening to, try going to http://google.com/contacts and making sure you don't have multiple entries for that person. Some of them may be unnamed but share the same email address, so be sure to search for email addresses.1 Comment Add a comment
This solves the problem

Heh. Great. Did you know that another current bug is that whenever you add a follower in Reader it creates duplicate contacts? I have hundreds of those orphan unnamed contacts floating around.
-
Inappropriate?i do in fact have many duplicates (about 800:) ). any easy way to remive them. and as chuck says, the duplicates love creating themselves (and i thought it was because of the cyanogen ROM on my G1)
-
Inappropriate?i may have messed up big time.
i deleted 1200-1300 (unnamed contacts) from my coworkers list. but when i went back to to the list of followers so i can manually re-add them its showing only240 users of the 730+ that used to show in that list.
is there an easy way to get the full list of the missing 500 users that i deleted up in the process. is there a way to undelete the 1300 (so i can just wait for a proper fix) -
Inappropriate?i can confirm that this did not solve the problem. i just checked with two people after i deleted the 1200+ (unknown contacts) and they confirmed that they still dont have the ability to comment on a non-commented items
