Hi, Colloo,
(In this response, we're using both the words blacklist and blackspot. Please keep a sharp eye for which is being discussed while reading.)
Gatherbuddy1 (a long time ago, and not in use today) used a profile as one would expect, and it also maintained a second file of "blacklisted nodes". Gatherbuddy1 auto-blacklisted nodes it had problems with. It wrote these blacklisted nodes into a persistent file (which you could edit to add or remove nodes). Thus, in GB1, if a node was ever blacklisted, it was blacklisted forever (unless you edited the file to remove it). If in its traversal, GB1 again auto-blacklisted the node (that was removed by a previous edit), it would put an entry right back into that file, and you'd be permanently skipping that node again.
----------
Gatherbuddy2 (what is in use today) changed things...
There is no "blacklisted node" file any more. Instead, As Bengan12 stated, a problematic node is blacklisted in memory for 5 minutes or so. This means that the blacklist doesn't persist from start-of-GB2 to start-of-GB2. If such things are needed, it is now up to the profile to place a blackspot on any area that contains nodes that are not to be visited. The profile indirectly contributes blacklisted nodes that persist across GB2 sessions by identifying blackspots on the terrain that contains problematic nodes.
Additionally, as Gatherbuddy2 traverses the profile waypoints, it will automatically blacklist nodes that it deems problematical (perhaps they are too far under water). When GB2 auto-blacklists things, they blacklist entry only stays around for 5mins or so, and does not persist across Gatherbuddy2 sessions.
Hope this helps.
cheers,

You blacklisted the area? then open "Bot Config" and look in the middle tab, select the continent and deselect the blacklisted area.
Other then that i don?t think archbuddy has any other blacklistng system.
Well there is the global blackspot file.
