    Green Underlined Word Advertising

    I agonized over which forum to put this in and then finally decided to put it in this one, because the issue I'm bringing up is possibly a bug. Recently, I noticed that a small amount of the words on each page are green and underlined twice. I was wondering if this is some weird quirk of my computer or if FFR has adopted a new, albeit annoying form of advertising while I was away. Anyone have information on this? Thanks.

          We all have the mouse over ads. It's a way to get the site money.

              Lol, the post I read of yours actually had one of the green underlined words in it.

              Yeah it's just a form of advertising, at least they aren't blue so it looks like there's something the text leads to. Eventually you just learn to tune it out and I don't even notice them anymore.

                  Yeah. Having the ads is fine and all, but



                  they shouldn't under any circumstances break links.

                          Everybody sees them, regardless of them being a subby or not. Certain words lead to ad links. Nothing really bad about them, it makes the site money, and it's not a distraction IMO.

                              Wow, they've for me just been random words, not entire links. That is a BIT excessive.

                                  Well, I might have said it wrong. They are just single words. I meant that they link to a certain ad using certain words.

                                      I've never seen a single add. I do not use ad-block on this site.

                                      xD

                                          They actually aren't that frequent either (at least, I think they aren't, again, it could be a subby/non-subby thing).

                                              They are random as ****. On this page I don't have a single ad but on other topics and profiles the pages are filled with the green links.
