To condense eftertanke's explanation, there are two ways you can currently be blacklisted, and one way for your server to be "blacklisted":
1) Someone lists a complaint about you in the blacklist thread, and individual server owners (such as TyD or NZ) decide to add your IP to their blacklists (this is a conglomeration of all three points from eftertanke).
2) The devs decide to blacklist you from the master server (which they will generally only do with persistent cheaters).
3) The devs decide to block your server from the master server, making it so that people cannot see it through the server browser.
And I understand why it's difficult to accept that people don't appreciate verbal abuse and poor maps, but I was answering your question as honestly as I could, hoping that you asked with the intent to improve based on answers people gave (rather than it being a rhetorical question).
