That's the problem, they should have banned them along with most of the servers on the masterserver.
See this thread: https://forum.cubers.net/thread-2677.html
[SELECT ALL] Code:
13. ASS PUNISHERS, low quality maps in maprot, ban date: 26.02.2017

7. |UF|GameRoom_CTF ClanUF.com; many low quality maps; ban date: 11.11.2015; affects also 2 other UF servers
6. Apocalypse; low quality maps (see below); ban date: 03.11.2015
Low quality maps, camper maps, and in the case of Gema Central nazi map. I host many maps that can be considered as low quality, and there's even a vagina map in there, also I don't have a blacklist and if you come on the server as stalin, hitler, mao, etc... or start saying bad words I wouldn't waste my time banning you. I'm surprised no one cared to ban my servers for the 3 or so years I've hosted them here.
So, I've decided to move them and hopefully someone with masterserver powers will wake up and ban the rest of the crap map servers. It's very easy, just go one each server one by one, upload a crap map, if the map can be voted, then the server should be banned. This is the only way anyone will ever solve the crap map problem.
For years people have been complaining about crap map and some non-crap map servers, so why isn't anyone doing anything about it?
Here are some examples:

Some of those are about crap maps, map restrictions, and how the game should be, etc..
The way I see it, crap maps should be the new target to having servers hosting them banned. Map restriction have done nothing to filter out crap maps, people get around it, upload to some server on the official masterserver, and their craps maps end up work in the end. Even if you remove map restrictions it wont be any better.
Better to separate good maps from bad maps entirely.
