I strongly encouraged the addition of a report and blacklisting system a
long time ago and went into further details with others here on the
hlds(linux) mailing list.
@Whosyourdaddy: If you're equipping your own, self-made content your
perfectly fine. This is about making paid content accessible without any
required payment. But hey, I'm not Valve, just see it as an educated
headsup.

Yes, a way to report them would be great. Because you know there will
always be someone who wants to break the rules. It would be great if
that little minority didn't impact the rest of the community like it
did in TF2.

Thanks for the notice Vitaliy!
I hope it doesn't have to come to what it did with TF2 (completely
breaking a large number of plugins to prevent the few communities
using it maliciously from using a single feature).
Will you guys be de-listing servers that have these plugins? Will
there by any way to report servers not abiding?

CS:GO community servers provide valuable experiences to
players and communities, and are serving more players than
ever before. Over the past month, 3.1 mln unique players were
observed playing on community servers and this number keeps
growing each month.
We're aware that some server operators are offering to their
players false inventories and/or profiles as a free or paid
service via mods on their servers. These mods inaccurately
report the contents of a players' inventory and/or matchmaking
status, devaluing both and potentially creating a confusing
experience for players.
Therefore, we are asking server operators to remove any mods
and plugins that falsify the contents of a players' profile or
inventory.
To be clear, the services that should not be offered on a
community server include (but are not limited to):
- Allowing players to claim temporary ownership of CS:GO items
that are not in their inventory (Weapon skins, knives, etc.).
- Providing a falsified competitive skill group and/or profile
rank status or scoreboard coin (e.g., Operation Challenge Coins).
- Interfering with systems that allow players to correctly
access their own CS:GO inventories, items, or profile.
If your server provides any of the above services then we
request that you disable them. If for some reason you are
unable or unsure of whether a particular plugin should be
removed, feel free to contact us.
We will continue to monitor the players experience on
community servers, and may reevaluate if further actions need
to be taken to ensure that server operators comply with the
request above.
Thanks,
The CS:GO Team
