"Black hat SEO refers to techniques and strategies used to get higher search rankings, and breaking search engine rules. Black hat SEO focuses on only search engines and not so much a human audience. Black hat SEO is typically used by those who are looking for a quick return on their site, rather than a long-term investment on their site. Some techniques used in black hat SEO include: keyword stuffing, link farming, hidden texts and links, and blog content spamming. Consequences of black hat SEO can possibly result in your site being banned from a search engine and de-indexed as a penalization for using unethical techniques.
White hat SEO refers to the use of techniques and strategies that target a human audience opposed to a search engine. Techniques that are typically used in white hat SEO include using keywords, and keyword analysis, doing research, rewriting meta tags in order for them to be more relevant, backlinking, link building as well as writing content for human readers. Those who use white hat SEO expect to make a long-term investment on their website, as the results last a long time."
Quoted from What is the difference between white hat SEO and black hat SEO?
Basically, Black Hat SEO is a waste of everyone's time and doesn't produce long-term results. Stick to White Hat SEO and give yourself some long-term benefits to your hard work.
Hope this helps!

Agree with some of the things you said above. But one that I want to strongly disagree with is that Black Hat SEO is a waste of time. A lot of people have achieved good rankings and the ranking are still there with Black Hat SEO.
The fact is that you really have to know what you are doing when taking the Black Hat route.
well explained.. i had some doubts but now it's clear. thank you man..
you can temporary page rank with black hat seo rank and white hat seo is the best and permanent
Black Hat SEO contains such techniques that are banned and blacklisted in SEO rules. Gogle penalizes all such websites that use Black Hat SEO. On the other hand, White Hat SEO contains the positive and legal techniques to optimize websites.

When you gain back link naturally its white hat but when you drop your website back link anywhere is blackhat 
SEO is only as ethical as the website owner. Most SEO specialists view SEO as a game and blackhat SEO is another device to be used to influence the SERPs to rank their sites higher.
Whilst there are penalties for some SEO methods it is your own choice as to how far you employ them with your strategy. When all is said and done SEO is a tool, what you do with it makes it positive or negative.

The difference between the two is usually defined by one (White hat) following the ethical guidelines and the other (Black hat) violating these guidelines to improve your ranking. White hat SEO refers to techniques such as relevant backlinks, quality content and internal links, while the other refers to the practices like cloaking, link manipulation or doorway pages. Keep in mind that Black hat SEO can bring some short-term benefits, but can get your site banned from search engines.
