Does This mean no more direct linking?

Hey guys, I'm an adwords newbie and just got all my ads disapproved. They said it was because of my display URL. Here is exactly what they said:

This is to a CPA offer, but it goes to my blog first which is a sub domain to a site of mine. It didn't fit in the display url, so I bought a new .net domain and forwarded it to the subdomain. Google says that you can't forward .nets to .coms and something about the display url had to have some words of the destination url in it?

Man, it really seems like google is cracking down on adwords. Any advice with this?

The Display URL MUST match the final destination URL's site as displayed in a user's browser's address bar.

This is ok:
Display URL: whatever. com
address bar URL: subdomain.whatever. com

Display URL: whatever. com/somethingelse
address bar URL: whatever. com

This is not:
Display URL: whatever. com
address bar URL: whatever. net
