    The System.Threading namespace is blacklisted. I think SignArtist has a delegate.

    That's a negative on SignArtist! oh well, any other black listed namespaces I should know about!

    Select namespaces are blacklisted for security. You can cause a lot of damage on shared hosts with a malicious plugin and the right access. Some hosts will not allow mods on their servers if they have security holes.

    Thought so would these namespaces help plugins at all if used in a non malicious matter (i don't fully understand c# still learning)

    There is rarely a need for them. If something is needed, it is generally wrapped in a safe manner. Regardless if your own personal intentions are malicious or not, they are limited to protect everyone. If you run a private dedicated server, you could always make an extension if you really need access.

    They might. Though Oxide provides some functions, like webrequests for example.
