About Comments Box

Can I use a comment box on my page? Where visitors can some what leave a comment or message to my site..

Yes, after you reach 5 posts I believe.

You don't need 5 posts and the comment box is ok as long as it is not a shout-box, where the posts load independent of the page and can cause a high server load through the frequent polling.

If comment boxes weren't allowed, then nobody could run a blog on x10hosting, since blogs have comment areas.

As long as it doesn't use AJAX, you are fine.

So AJAX basically = suspended?

I should phrase that as "It's not allowed to use AJAX to load the comments", it is allowed to use AJAX to post comments.
