  At present there is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on any free hosted WordPress.COM blogs without the Business upgrade http://wordpress.com/pricing/

  For your WordPress.COM blog you have three free workaround forum options http://onecoolsite.wordpress.com/2012/04/23/wordpress-com-forum-options/

  See: https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/p2-breathe/

  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.

  We also have a single chatbox widget that will operate on WordPress.COM hosted sites. The Tlk.io widget allows you to embed a web chat in your WordPress.COM hosted blog. http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/tlk-io-widget/ There are no other chat options I know of that work on WordPress.COM blogs at this time.
