    Banned Members vs Ejected ones

    I've been going through old threads via the search function.
    Noticed a number of members have been 'thrown out' of the forum, but there seem to be two methods of expulsion:
    1 - Banned
    2 - Ejected

    So what is the difference?. Is one method 'stronger/harsher than the other...or do they both mean the same?

    Ok so the moderators are not answering my first question...
    How about this question which has been asked many times before but just doesn't get fixed....

    Can you please fix the site so it is possible to upload photos....esp in the For Sale, Swap or Trade section.
    It shouldn't be this difficult/this impossible.

    @mimms2 you say 'I hunt, therefore I am.' How about 'I think first before I comment, therefore I am not a dick'.

    It's much easier/quicker to use a third party hosting site for photos and you have more control over them if that's a concern. ImgBB works.

    Ok due to my "extensive software authoring and database management credentials" I have found a work around for the attaching of photos in the 'Buy, Sell or Swap' section.
    For all those having trouble once you have tried to attach a photo but no .jpg image shows as being attached, click the 'Go Advanced' button instead of the 'Post Quick Reply' button.
    This shows the .jpg image as attached and you can then click the 'Post' button.

    Dick indeed.
    I'm sure you try to be a nice person @mimms2, it just seems that your typing fingers don't co-operate.
    But that's ok....keep posting.....I'm diagnosing you

    Please @mimms2 I don't hate you, I'm just not necessarily excited about your existence...

    Browse and then press upload. But yeah careful sticking phone pics on here straight as they end up mammoth sized. Then non-Aucklanders have to spend 2 days of dial up for it to download!

    Not sure there's any real difference except "ejected" is bar language.
