Yup yup, thanks for the heads up here Christy. If anyone knows of any plugins Valve have started blacklisting, please let CS leadership know via dropbox so we can ensure these plugins won't be used, or get removed if they're in place.

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

i saw it coming months ago when they disabled the ability to use sv_cheats to remove your starting knife, and then add any of the knives in an offline server.

The knife plugin didn't really seem like that big of a deal or a bad thing, it disappoints me that Valve has to do things such as blacklisting servers that allow users the fun of having a cool knife that they most likely will never get if they don't buy cases/participate in giveaways/etc.
