I've found two instances where the module fails to post:

1) If subject lines in comments are disabled
2) If subject lines in comments are enabled, but the user does not provide a subject

In either instance, the comment will not post, and the user gets a red error that says "Comment field is required."

Marking critical since end users have no way to work around the problem in #1.

I can not reproduce this in my test instalations. Please provide a link to your site or test setup. I'm sure that it's caused by 3rd-party modules or specific theme settings.

After emailing off-site with @neochief, he determined the problem was related to #349426: Doesn't work with FCKeditor

The problem stems from recent changes to FCKeditor. ajax_comments works properly with the 6.x-2.x branch of FCKeditor, but breaks on the 6.x-1.x branch. He sent me a patch to try. With the patch, ajax_comments works properly with the 6.x-1.x branch of FCKeditor.

He promises to commit the patch shortly.
