Those horrible double underline links are back. To whom do we complain?

I was on earlier this morning and everything was fine. Now, the da*^#@ highlighted words links are back again! They're on other GW forums, as well. What's going on, GardenWeb?!? I hate these things and refuse to click on any of them!

Ugh! Time to Prune, but they're still blooming

Mike----When I lived in Fl I always had that problem. What I did to slow things down was stop feeding them the middle of Oct. Water the crap out of them Nov & Dec. Usually by Jan I had a lot of blind growth with just a few blooms on all the bushs. Didn't bother me to prune & strip all my bushs come Feb. One year I didn't prune or strip my bushs and they looked ugly and the blooms were pathetic all year. I never did that again. Now when I pruned, I NEVER pruned hard. Just cleaned and shaped the bushs. Even the ones I had on Dr. Huey responded very well.

I got mine today too, and just in time! I'm leaving at some strange hour of morning on tuesday, and this is the last day they could have arrived that I would've had a chance to do something with them :) I wasn't expecting them, I was so surprised! in a looong stretch of inconvenient days, they arrived on the ONE convenient day possible. I love it when that happens, it's usually the opposite. lol. they're extremely wilted and I don't blame them, LOL. the more hardwood part seems pretty firm but the thick green stems are a little rubbery. the growing tip on the coral pink appears to have just given up, but the ecuador has some decent sized leaves and they seem to be perking back up again :) so, someone needs to tell me when I get back who to send the moneys to! :) omg, and I think I still owe theresa money for the lotus tubers! if I owe anyone money please let me know. lol. things have been so crazy lately! thanks again, lindas and gloria and everyone on here that made this possible. you guys are absolute dolls.

They're cute when they're not eating your hostas!

I still love the deer, they are so beautiful, especially the babies. We put up a deer fence along the woods and now they leave me alone. It is heartbreaking to go out and find your hostas mowed down, been there. Sometimes they are so smart, they come in through our driveway. What I did notice is they only bothered the old solid green junk hostas. Couldn't figure out why, then I thought maybe because all of my good hostas and roses get the Bayer 2 in 1 applied every 6 weeks or so. Maybe something in that makes them taste bad.

I see them too! Last time when we complained we were told it was a mistake. I questioned that, then.

I, too, would like to lodge a complaint - it is our words being linked to advertising and I thought such wasn't permitted on the forum.

I hate having advertising shoved in my face like that.

I'm not getting them. I did have the GW survey thing bouncing across the screen a few times.

I am. Things I posted which were fine yesterday now are underlined. And I have all this pop-blocker stuff too.

Do they not understand that NO ONE is ever going to click these targeted links?

I see that Garden Web is now available on Twitter too. I do not think this audience is one who will Twitter.

I use Firefox as my browser and have the "Ad-Block Plus" plug in/extension. Not only do I not have ANY ads or pictures, but I haven't seen the double underlined links embedded in the text.
