Basically, let's say person 1 and 3 others make a private map that is God tier. Their maps are cool and all... But there is no one to know about it. They make it public and so that they can edit, but it's all getting griefed so it's back to private. They could make a map that has exactly everything, but because it's God tier, it would probably take almost a whole month to recreate the surface.(It's impossible to recreate everything by hand, so yeah) so I would recommend a feature where you can upload a map from creative and make it into survival and vise versa, and it could be like making a new map, just that some things are already chosen. (By the way, if this does get added, can you have the ability to make it so some people don't run out of sprint, like for parkour) 
 
Twice, me and piggy made a map where everyone could build and make houses, but both of those times, SOMEONE WOULD ALWAYS RUIN IT WITH LAVA, ICE, IRON GOLEMS, BOATS, BLOCKS THAT SPAWN SILVERFISH, AND ANYTHING POSSIBLE. We always needed to make it private instantly. Like can we just have a permissions list? Especially on creative maps,like. [Example: griefer tries to pour lava on a house and successful does so, and the owner of map sees, and bans griefer from map or removes permissions to edit. If the owner is offline or doesn't see it, maybe you can trace blocks and lava/water sources to see who made it. Basically, just add a mechanic so we can have specific players kicked or maybe specific people and friends could edit (Not ALL friends in the settings)
By the way, how do you destroy boats in creative private maps (Besides putting it into lava) because I tried to punch it in creative but it doesn't really work or am I just too slow for it?

Also, I recommend more private map variation, because the only maps that have no head start / spawn zone looking things are flat n trees, and flat...
No forest?
No desert?
No mountains?
There are some of these on private maps, but they are on the ones that include villages or whatever. I don't really like those because you can mine specific blocks and they just give you a head start (because sometimes it's taken advantage of by most people)

Pingu, like iron or gold blocks for armor and tools

couldn't you just mine out all of the iron/gold/lapis/diamond blocks and such from the structures in creative mode before you upload it for multiplayer? In most biomes (with notable exceptions such as jungle and desert biomes, where they have a couple natural structures in the wilderness with rare block loot), the most valuable blocks are usually within the spawntowns so it's not that difficult to miss, you could just spend an afternoon doing that.

No, I mean the whole spawn

Ah.

If TNT worked in Private Maps, then I would suggest using that to help clear out things, but they currently aren't properly functional on Private Maps.

It would be nice to have a world option to enable or disable TNT explosions on Private Maps.

Breaking it all would just take too long

We are considering giving Private Maps owners some moderation tools for their maps and overall improve this game mode.
