What exactly happens when people try to comment on your above site (crazyguyinthailand)? Do they get an error message?

By default, all WPcom sites are set up to allow comments. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/discussion-settings/

And looking at your site I see there are comments on various posts.

People can click on the comment bubble at the top of your post to get to the open comment box, like on this post http://crazyguyinthailand.wordpress.com/2014/01/24/visiting-a-thai-fortune-teller/#comments but Commenting generally happens in the Single Post View

It seems that some posts have open comment boxes and some don’t, which makes me think that you have enabled comments in the Settings>Discussion, but perhaps have turn off commenting in the Discussion Module of the Post Editor. Please open a post for editing and see if that isn’t the case. See here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/enable-disable-comments/

@crazyguyinthailand Currently, it looks like you have comments enabled on your blog. By default, new posts should allow users to comment. Your most recent post published on 3/26 (Sukhotai Dont Click If You Dont Like Temples) looks like it currently has 32 comments so it appears as though readers are still able to comment.

Are you still having trouble with this?

Just to be clear, you can also disable comments on a post by post basis as shown here:

Here’s a support doc for reference:

Let me know if you’re still experiencing trouble!
