The vast and overwhelming majority of all so-called information on the internet is spam. Over 80% of all so-called comments submitted to .wordpress.com blogs every day are spam. Spam comes in waves. There are human beings who get paid to post spam. There are robotic programs that post spam.
Just imagine what you blog would look like if every commenter, including every hacker and spammer could post at will. The blog would be full of porno videos and images, spam and make money online spam in the blink of a an eye.

As the Admin of a blog you can insert images into your comments and your visitors can include links to images in their comments for your to moderate. WordPress.com allows you and your readers to embed YouTube videos, tweets from Twitter, and PollDaddy polls directly into blog comments by simply adding a single URL into the comment text.
But what you are describing is not a blog at all it’s a Wiki and there are free Wikis you can register. See here http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/06/13/whats-a-wiki/

Thanks for the information, I’m pretty new at this. What I was envisioning is a forum that you would be a member of to post in and then you could start your own threads etc.
Yes, there would be problems and the moderator(s) would have to stay on top of it.

You cannot embed any forums into a WordPress.COM blog.There is no FTP access and we bloggers cannot install plugins.
For your WordPress.COM blog you have three free workaround forum options: http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/04/23/wordpress-com-forum-options/
One approach is to register a forum on the internet and then create a custom menu in your blog and include a custom link to the forum in it.
a custom link to the forum in it.

I’m going to do some thinking and considering and then I might go in the forum direction. Again, thanks for the tips.
