Since you have brought the conflict into the public domain, I will allow myself to express my personal opinion. I am almost completely on the side of the moderator on the substance of the matter (but without insults). I will explain why.
A little over a year ago, the forum was flooded with messages like: "The map is good. Will the author make a sequel?" And so on, for all the old maps. At first, I thought that this was being done by the moderators in order to popularize the site. I had to register and write that enough self-promotion was enough. After that, atlant108 started posting other people's maps with his own comments. The moderators opened a special discussion and decided the issue in favor of atlant108. As the Chinese say, let there be more colors. So, you have nothing to be offended about.
Regarding advertising, the moderator is there to regulate it at his discretion. On other sites, messages are deleted without warning or explanation.
Now, about something else. Maybe someone has already raised this issue? Recently, a large number of videos with map walkthroughs have appeared. I watched a few. All of it is drawn out; the presenter drinks coffee, talks on the phone, or says that another hundred has dropped. Is this how they make money?
I think that walkthrough videos are a useful thing and allow for the exchange of experience and advice. But this must be done professionally. Are the moderators not going to have their say here?
With respect to everyone.
