A different idea:
Since overwatch is out of beta, it gives you rank points for accurate
reviews. Why not do the same for reporting servers?

Give people a chance to flag their servers as inapplicable for giving
out rank points. This should for example apply to idle servers. If
they get caught not complying, they get blacklisted. bb

I think it would be incredibly difficult (if not impossible) to
implement, though. As Jack M. mentioned, there needs to be some way
to deal with idle servers. And XP is given out based on game mode +
points earned at the end of the match. Something like a 1v1 server
(which is technically generally run in a classic casual game mode)
issues you points based on what arena you're in. Somebody who goes
35:10 for the whole map and happens to end in the bottom arena would
gain less XP than somebody who just joined, goes 8:0, and ends in the
top arena. Or somebody who plays 10 minutes in deathmatch would get
significantly less XP than somebody who plays 10 minutes in a FFA
deathmatch, just because they have fewer targets to kill.
It sounded like a good idea while I was typing it, but I think in
practicality, it would either be impossible or it would turn into
something like "You can earn XP on your servers if you have
such-and-such cvars enabled and you're not running this or that
plugin", which would probably upset the community even more.

That's a nice suggestion!

Earning xp is simply just a barrier to entry into valve's
matchmaking. It would be completely pointless if it were
allowed on community servers. (However, if they made it so
after rank three you could earn xp on community servers,
that would solve both sides of the issue.)

As a server operator myself, in my opinion the best way
to go about this
issue would be for Valve to patch the commands that
server operators use to
give weapon skins or knives or whatever they decide.
That way, we know which
plugin can be used without being worried about breaking
the rules and
running in grey areas.
Alternatively, I suggest a compromise for this
situation, where servers that
run weapon skins or knifes plugins are unranked, such
that players do not
receive XP, whilst servers that don't run these weapon
skins or knifes
plugins and conform to an set of "ranked" rules will
have XP drops for
players. This, I do believe is a compromise between a
significant
deterioration of community servers and Valve's profits loss.
