Not banned... rebuked just a little?

Lindsey should not have been abusive to women. I agree.

They don't want to deal with it because you bring it on yourself and they and you know it.

Because calling anyone whore is a vulgarity and meant to degrade... I can't believe I have to explain this.

I can easily look at the forum rules that you posted and say you broke most of them just in a week you’ve been here. I’m out of this discussion. I’ve posted before reading all the replies and others have stated it all much more eloquently than I ever could. Yet you still ignore all that and insist on your same points over and over. That’s not respectful discussion.
Posting one's views and discuss the glorious music is exactly the purpose of a band forum. Using offensive language and bullying other members isn't. However, apparently the moderators allow this sort of behavior by some members that use this forum to make themselves feel better.

He may still be. We do not know, maybe he assaulted or threated to assault Stevie and that is why he got the boot?

No one knows what happened. I don't know any more about this than the day they confirmed it.

Now THAT would be a reason to fire him, wouldn't it. So don't you think professional victim Stevie would have milked that? Or - just as an idea - would have called the police? She is in no way dependent on Lindsey, has no reason to not file charges. And with the metoo movement, she would have made a difference for abuse victims, but still no.
So stop trying to make this angle happen, you are respectless towards the victims of abuse, just to find a reason that paints Stevie in a better light. That's unseemly.

I can think of a million other more practical things to spend $1200 on, no matter how beautiful Mick's books appear. That's just me. To each their own.

Oh, she would have milked that, no question about it. If she was capable of an ultimatum, she's capable of anything. Lindsey's family seems pretty sure of the angle they're pursuing. If Lindsey had done something wrong especially to Stevie, they wouldn't be speaking on social media with such authority.
