Help Swype tip indicator is driving me nuts!

I love Swype but it's annoying the heck out of me. I turned OFF the Swype tip indicator but it decides to give me tips anyway right in the middle of texting! Every time I change a word a tip indicator comes up to tell me that the other word is "hidden" with this new word. I get it! And I don't care! Stop interrupting me!

How do I make it stop doing this?
 
Settings > Language and keyboard > Swype settings > I have the word prediction unchecked. It just kept popping up with suggestions of words I don't even use. My word choice window setting is also set at 0%. ^^. Don't know if you like it predicting your words or not, But I don't. X.x

That doesn't bother me, but it's the tip indicator, I don't think it's anything else. It's a black pop up that tells me when they hid a word for me, blah!
 
I use Better Keyboard (free in the market) isntead of the stock/swype keyboard and I don't get any 'tips'.
 
I cannot find any way to turn off the "Hidden" pop ups. I've tried everything. It's just always going to notify you of words that it has hidden due to other words. It's giving you the chance to remove one word from it's library for the sake of another. I believe this isn't something that can be done automatically because it's a users language/word choice.
 
Its a pain to "un hide" the words, but if you do, it will learn the words you use and theoretically the longer you use it, the better it will work for you. Too much work for me, though, I just put up with it. Lol (it just happened to me while I was swyping this. "put" is hidden by "oot".) Lol thats not even a freaking word !!
 
I always highlight and remove the word that is the incorrectly spelled/inaccurate one. I don't like it keeping the useful words "Hidden".
 
This is driving me freaken nuts and slowing down the fastest input method for cell phones. I am literally getting angry at my phone these tips need to go away. It even insults you but telling you you don't know what you're doing! Thanks swype, you don't know what you're doing!

I'm a she. LAWL! I just now noticed that. I've tried to find a way to turn off the "Hidden" words but, You can't. Basically what it's doing is collecting each word you type, Storing it away in a library. When you misspell a word, It overwrites what was previously in the library. So when you go back and spell the word again, Correctly this time, It will hide the misspelled word again. It notifies you in case you want to keep a certain word in the library rather than have it "Hidden". X.x
