Now that's a different story! I tend to add these sites individually to my htaccess and redirect them.
After all: I didn't submit to them, and if they blacklist me it won't hurt too much, since I don't want their traffic anyhow (and most likely not from their trading partners either).

I usually check out the site first, see what they're doing with their traffic (e.g. their trades, too many lolida style links, opening galleries in frames, forcing dialers upon surfers, etc.) and if I don't like what I find then they get re-directed...
