Look at the definitions you posted below, see the v. after Advise, and the n. after Advice? Apparently you don't know much about grammar, or how to use a dictionary. The n. means it's a noun, and the v. means it's a verb. Your sentence, Thanks for the advise. uses a verb in the place of a noun. Let me give you a little hint about grammar, if it's preceded by the preposition "the" then it's probably going to be a noun, not a verb. You are wasting everyone's time with all this nonsense, but now that we have established the level of your knowledge in several fields, why not take a back seat, lick your wounds, and let the signal to noise ratio come back to something a little higher.
