Yep, got the same issue. I think the problem is that the map opens in "Google My Maps", where you normally create or save your personal maps.
It should open up in the "general" area of Google maps and display it there. Once it opens up there, you can then save it to where you want it to go.
As such, I believe that link on the HF map page is incorrectly linked and should be updated.
So, to the moderator(s) of the HF site or the person maintaining the map page, please update the link so that it opens up on "Google maps", NOT "Google My Maps".....
Also, I don't even know if this is the correct map that shows up, as there only a few markers on this map, as opposed to the 982 pages of the Forum map related posts. That would suggest that there are A LOT of other people that registered. Is there actually another map with more markers?

Let me explain a little how to add yourself to the map.
1. Once you open the Hammock Forums Google Map, zoom into the place where you are located and want to place yourself on the map.
2. Click on the placement icon (see Map 1).
3. Click on the map where you want to place this icon.
4. A window should now come up. You can put you username in there or whatever you want and click SAVE.
5. If for some reason you make a mistake at placing the icon, click on cancel and then delete (the trash can icon).
Let me know if this does not work.

I am getting a message saying the map is private not public. No option to edit at all.
