  @terminatorjoel1337
  It sounds like you are looking for either a chatbox or a forum. At present there are no chatboxes available, I am aware of, that can be used on free hosted WordPress.com blogs. 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.
