First, sorry my einglish, im not american.

This is a good plugin, but it bring me a problem.

In my blog, each author can post in only one category. Example, "Author A" post only in "Category A", "Author B" post only in "Category B".

But when the authors post, the Comments are disabled.

When i post (admin), the comments are enabled.

Look:

Posted by author: http://verei.co.cc/wordpress/?p=46

Posted by admin: http://verei.co.cc/wordpress/?p=36

Why this is happening? And what i need to do?

Oh! I had that same problem happen on one of my Contributor's posts.  It just so happened that I was in there investigating a different problem, so I thought it was me accidentally clearing the checkbox before saving it.  I uninstalled the 1.0.8 version of Role Scoper and reinstalled a prior version and haven't run into that problem since (I did this yesterday).  There's still a chance that this was indeed my error, but I wanted to respond to your post that it happened to me as well.

I recently posted another issue related to comments, so maybe these two comment issues are related?

With RS 1.0.8, hiding the comment/trackback settings UI from the Post/Page Edit Form causes comments and trackbacks to be turned off. This will be corrected in the upcoming Role Scoper 1.1 release. To work around it for now, go to Roles > Options > Advanced > Limited Editing Elements. Remove commentstatusdiv and pagecommentstatusdiv, then click the Update button.

I can't advise rolling back to a previous version to avoid this unless you have looked over the 1.0.8 release notes (readme.txt) and are comfortable forfeiting the features, bug fixes, plugin conflict resolutions that it added.

For inquiring minds, the new bug came when I adopted a user's suggestion to remove the "Limited Editing Elements" via WordPress' remove_meta_box() function instead of just hiding them via CSS. That works well in general, but in the case of comment / trackback settings, WordPress interprets the missing UI as an "off" setting.
