Try this


FROM requests r
left outer join users sm on sm.u_id = r.r_salesman
left outer join users u on r.r_u_id = u.u_id
left outer join request_types t on r.r_t_id = t.t_id
left outer join request_states s on r.r_s_id = s.s_id
left outer join dealerships d on r.r_d_id = d.d_id
left outer join departments de on r.r_de_id = de.de_id
left outer join customers c on r.r_c_id = c.c_id
left outer join comment_tallies co on r.r_id = co.r_id ORDER BY r.r_id;

Don't put commas between your joins.

The problem was the comma after each of the joins. They should not have 
been there either.
