If i blacklist someone, it is for one single reason, they did the same to me in the past, except for one person (the same "annonymous" person mentioned in paragraph 4). This is the only reason i have and it has most likely caught my attention from a train event or a forum GA event, at times i check those and i usually come across blacklists in such events when going through carts, to which i reply in the same manner by adding the person to the BL. I've only started doing this since DEC 2023, so it is most likely you are a recent BL on my side. Prior to that i only had that one person blacklisted.

Now as to why that happened on your end, i have no clue. I used to be more active years ago, And back then i used to also be more active in the forums, and i'm the type of person that does not hold back when it comes to things i do not accept. Specially if it goes in terms of lack of justice. As i believe in overall neutrality.

I either triggered you because my opinion is not to your liking, maybe won something from you and you BL'd me after, or you saw my profile and noticed the 2 red flags from ages ago, both dupe wins i was never aware off untill the community made that one tool to check rule breakers (the only way to check dupe wins was to check your winnings). The moment that went public, people started BL'ing me as a rulebreaker.

Got blacklisted a bunch and whitelisted a few for sharing my opinion when someone was calling out leeches in a topic (this person actually commented on icaios thread and he was my first BL and has been the only BL for a long time), said person literally gives away quantity over quality, which makes his ratio to giveaway things slightly higher than what he wins, but someone who wins more than they give but decide to throw it actual real value gifts often, Wouldn't it be the samething in the end, if not even better. There are a lot of people that offer quantity over quality in this community, but you have very few that do the opposite. People were criticizing me for leeching because i had a ratio of like 3 wins : 1 GA back then, the estimated real value was higher on my side despite that ratio, i had given more than i had won in terms of value but not quantity, but people seem to miss that metric and only look towards quantity. So i did not like him calling people like me leeches due to lacking quantity but not quality, when he is the opposite of that. And when i stated that, a lot of people started blacklisting me, which i assume were people in a similar train to him or shared his POV more than they did with me.

Quantity does not equal quality. If everyone was here to giveaways leftovers and win leftovers, what purpose would this website have in all honesty unless for the ones down below 100% leeching. I can just buy the same bundles and have the leftovers for a few cents... I usually buy things i know can be interisting. I GA things that i do know people could possibly like. This is no different than having a world were everyone looks the same, such world would be boring and dull, we need difference in between to spice things up and that is where i sit. The criticism got to me and i just quit, i come here from time to time, win some, give back few but usually just bundle leftovers. I'm constantly giving away stuff on steam friends to people i know since i quit here. I buy bundles quite often, with those comes dupes, also buy choice every now and then, which adds more dupes. Steamgifts not so much anymore since i can't hold them in inventory and usually just buy directly as gifts for some people i am in good terms with on steam (irl people, or just oldschool friends from steam)

These opinions that got me blacklisted were shared in the year 2016, back then i went from like 8 BLs to 59 in 1 year for sharing at least 2 opinions that got some people triggered. There was a 3rd opinion but over a decade old and i think blacklisting did not exist back then. Said opinion was me being triggered by a specific mod not allowing me to make the largest community train back then, i requested more GA slots because i knew people were requesting those and being allowed such requests, but when i did it and stated my purpose, i got denied. This one act sent me in a downward spiral against injustice in this community, some people being treated differently than others for some stupid reason i will never get to know. When the endgoal of it all was to help and benefit the community itself, Just like how people create groups of people based on quantity given and not value, which is another concept that makes no sense to me and it reinforces people to just throw leftovers to keep things balanced so they avoid the bad attention from the community.

This is my conclusion as to what could possibly got you to blacklist me, i do have a few blacklists prior to these opinions and after (which i have no clue what they are about, either petty stuff or people finding out late about these things i mentioned and in some cases, people just BL me after winning.)
