Since we imported this community from LiveJournal, your comments show up as OpenID comments, like this: exampleuser@livejournal.com.
What is OpenID? Basically, it's a service several sites, including those derived from LJ, use to let you comment using the credentials for just one of them: e.g., you can comment on DW using your LJ log-in. For a longer and more accurate explanation, here's the DW FAQ page on OpenID.
If you have a Dreamwidth account, you can "claim" your OpenID comments so that they'll now be directly linked to your DW account and you will never need the credentials of another site to manage them. You can edit them and do whatever else you can do to comments you make while logged into your DW account, your user icon will show up, etc.
Here are the Dreamwidth instructions for claiming your OpenID comments on Dreamwidth.
