The problem is that your 'formatoptions' (or just 'fo') option
includes the 'o' flag. It sounds like you want the 'r' flag but not
the 'o' flag. See
:help fo-table
for an explanation of what the various flags do.
To the question of why that behavior seems to have changed for you
recently, execute this:
:verbose set fo?
That will tell you the current value of the 'fo' option and where it
was last set. The proper way to set or restore the value of 'fo'
to what you want will depend on the output from that command.
My preferred value of 'formatoptions' contains 'r' but not 'o'.
That way I can easily insert code below a comment by typing 'o' on
the last comment line. If instead I want to insert more lines of
comment below an existing comment, I move the cursor to the last
comment line, hit 'A' then Enter, and I have a new line beginning
with the comment leader.
HTH,
Gary
