A blacklist is a sheet of black paper which you can write lists on, you usually have to write on it with white-out if you actually want to be able to read it in the future though.

Alright, well you know what a whitelist is?
A whitelist is when something is closed to (most) everyone, and to be able to use it, you must get permission from whoever is in charge, if they approve of you using said thing, they will then put you on a whitelist.
A blacklist however, is pretty much the opposite, something's open to pretty much everyone, but if you do something against some rules, or something that ticked off whoever's in charge of said thing, they can put you on a blacklist, revoking access, permission, privelledges, whatever.

Wiki: blacklisting.
On SG: when you make someone hate you, he puts you on his blacklist.txt and if support did allow that blacklist to exist, they will always reroll giveaways if you win it.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

When a private giveaway has a blacklist, it means that anyone who is in the list must not enter the giveaway. If one of the list's users enters and wins the giveaway, the giveaway's creator may request a re-roll (selecting another winner) through support.
A blacklist must be approved by support BEFORE being used in giveaways. Using the blacklist isn't possible for public giveaways.

Q. What is a blacklist?
A. "Blacklist" is the name given to a list created by an otherwise powerless individual to demonstrate his or her disapproval of those named by the list through exclusion from the list creator's social circle. (See also: "boycott.") This has little to no impact upon the person being blacklisted, but it does give a small bit of satisfaction to the list creator due to the illusion of revenge. (See also: "I'm going to take my ball and go home.") At a bare minimum, the list functions as a reminder of those who, at one time or another, have offended its creator.

Did you quote this from somewhere or did you come up with it on your own? Because if you did it is very well written! A perfect definition!

No, I didn't copy that from anywhere. I simply tried to consider the essence of what a blacklist truly is and the uses to which people put it.

It is neither a bad thing to have one, nor a good thing. If you do choose to have one, however, then at least be honest with yourself about your reasons for it. Personally, I choose to let the slights, insults, and offenses of others go whenever possible. I find that the negative impact of holding onto dislike and similar feelings outweighs any benefit I might gain thereby.
