I believe Alex can help you with setting up your JIRA account to be able to assign stuff to yourself.
As for non-committers, a comment saying 'I am on it' should be sufficient. Regularly updating tasks/sub-tasks with progress updates would also be helpful in case someone else wants to continue from where things are. This is an issue I struggled with at the beginning as well. It became easier as I got used to the process and stuck to it. Take a look at FLEX-33106 for an example of how multiple developers worked together by creating sub tasks and posting regular progress updates.
