1. I do not and cannot know who you exactly are as I don't spend my time in the "scene". The name "Apache" does ring me a bell but not enough to know/remember how serious a trainer maker you are. If that's the basis for this whole problem, then sorry for the short memory from my side, and probably a lack of proper introduction from your side.
2. Even if your site is new, if you have old free stuff then where are they? Or, perhaps, you have a bias by adding paid stuff rather than free stuff...?
3. Letting CheatHappens "advertise" themselves, by putting their free promos onto GCW, was kind of a two-way advertising. Seeing the situation between the two parties recently getting colder, to put it mildly, does not change this much, however, because...
4. That list is for the users, not for trainer makers, if you understand the difference. There are people who try to advertise themselves by asking themselves to be put onto that list... and I simply don't add them. This is no bias against you but a bias for users.
5. I don't have time to deal with the vulnerable egos of people, by phrasing sentences the way that is the least "hurting" to them. Especially seeing the previous points.

For the reasons above, I stand by my decision. If you have more free stuff then put them onto your site, get back to us and I'll be happy to put it onto our list. I don't think there's much to say in this matter. TippeX, please, have your say, if you like - I'm pretty much done here. These posts will be deleted as such, uhm, "discussion" doesn't belong to this thread...

(Yes, I do have an ego, too. When two such egos clash, weird things happen. I know that and you should've found that out from your own experience, too.)
