There are many things here I can not answer regarding technical issues, but there are a few things I can answer.

FullTimeGeek was not banned from the blockchain, SteemIt.com decided to stop displaying his posts.  Those are very different things.

The witness do not review blocks before signing them.  I do not believe they have the ability to decide what they will and will not include in a block they just sign the block.  ;)  As I am sure you are aware it is a rotating list of many people and it moves forward every three seconds, if they were not signing blocks based on what is in the block we would see that.  

The problem with this post is only that it confuses so many issues.

I am curious why the account couldn't transact

Here are a few things that come to mind as potential issues:  With zero investigation.

Steemd.com was displaying incorrect RC credits.  Or there is a bug in the actual code with checking for RCs.

I'm unclear on how to test it, but the Lindsay part makes no sense when you speak in terms of injecting information into the blockchain.

Steemd.com (and Steemworld.org) were showing the correct number of RCs.
The problem was fixed when I delegated 5 coins and then undelegated those 5 coins. 

>FullTimeGeek was not banned from the blockchain
 
Never said that he was, in fact the link that I posted to the original topic is more than clear.

-----

I'll I'm saying is that this is a potentially very serious centralization issue that needs to be addressed.  Witnesses aren't even the ones checking to see if users have the RCs to transact on the blocks they are creating?  Ridiculous.

I will admit I get a bit sensationalist with the whole conspiracy angle.

Well the only thing about it is, at first I was interested in the bug and was going to try to escalate it..

But after the rest of it, it was hard to take seriously.  (for me, I'm sure many who don't understand the tech will jump on board and call it a conspiracy)

Well, if the RC's from @lindsaybowes were correctly reported, then there's some issue connected to the source of the RC's, since @edicted's delegation solved the problem.  Regardless of uninformed speculation based on those facts, this is an issue that needs to be understood - if only to forestall further speculation and the FUD that inevitably generates.

Thanks!

It might be that @fulltimegeek delegated the 15 SP using @steemit?
