  Hello there,
  Note: I don’t help wity CSS editing. Either Staff or another Volunteer will assist you as soon as they can. I simply wanted to share the information that follows.

  All WordPress blogs by default have comments open on all Pages and Posts. You can enable and disable comments 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.

  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

  Hi there,

  You can turn comments off in the way Timethief described.

  To hide the date, try the following CSS:

  meta-date {
  display: none;
  }

  If you’d like to hide that entire gray background section where the date and comment links appear, you can use:

  .postmeta {
  display: none;
  }

  Let me know how that works!

  You can go to Appearance->Customize here:
  https://innocaption.wordpress.com/wp-admin/customize.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Finnocaption.wordpress.com%2F

  There, click the CSS tab and paste this code in the code editor there. But I see you’ve already figured this out. :)
