  Hi!

  How do I remove this?
  thanks!

  You can enable and disable comments on posts on WordPress.com blogs on this page > Settings > Discussion
  Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/discussion-settings/

  You can override the default settings and enable or disable future comments on any individual post or page.

  Important Note: By default, new blogs on WordPress.com will have the Discussion hidden. You can reveal it by clicking on Screen Options http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/ on the top right corner of your Admin page, and checking the box that says Discussion so the module is included. http://en.support.wordpress.com/modules/#list-of-modules

  You can remove comments from all published pages using Bulk Edit. Go to the Pages page in your dashboard. Select the checkbox next to Title to select all pages in the view, then select Edit from the Bulk Actions drop down and click the Apply button. On the resulting screen you will see a dropdown labeled Comments. Change that dropdown to “Do not allow” and click the Update button. Comments have been removed.

  This is the condensed version of how to do it. For more about disabling comments, see this article: https://en.support.wordpress.com/enable-and-disable-comments-for-published-posts-and-pages/

  http://www.engelstadium.com/wordpress is a WordPress.org self-hosted site. This forum is for WordPress.com hosted sites. The correct forum for WordPress.org self-hosted sites is http://wordpress.org/support. You will need to go there and create a separate account for the support forums there.
