I wouldn't recommend doing that. Simply adding <!-- before and --> after will work (or removing it all together as suggested).

It's bad practice to create PHP calls when they aren't needed.

I got it to work. I was commenting wrong.
I only found it once in archive.php and here's what I did. For anyone else wanting to do this you cannot just add a // or the /* */ commenting. You must add <?php and ?> to the beginning and the end.

<?php
/*
<small>Posted by <?php the_author() ?> | <?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?> <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?></small>
*/
?>

Do you have a caching plugin? Please provide a link to the page this is showing on.

I've been trying to do this for a while.
To test, all I did was put xyz after "Posted" to create "Postedxyz by" inside archive.php. The code will not change. Flushed cache and tried 3 different browsers. Ideas?

Open up "archives.php" and remove the following wherever it shows up:

Posted by <?php the_author() ?>

and

<?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?>
