I saw your website and it seems you are trying to put counter strike 1.6 maps for downloading, first i have two suggestions for you, the first one is that most (and probably all) of the counter strike 1.6 maps are available on their official website for download but if you are the author then story differs but if not then just put the direct link for downloading them from the main website of counter strike, so by this way you don't need to be worry about 50mb upload size limit. the second one, i think a shared web hosting service is not a good choice for a website like yours which needs a lot of bandwidth because of its download, so my suggestion is to use VPS for better experience and less problems, by the way if you don't have many visitors which download your maps then you can just continue using your current host.Now for what you have said about your needs i will give you some examples, for blog you can use wordpress instead of your current CMS which seems to be phpNuke. for that download stuff my suggestion is to use this plugin with the wrodpress i said about https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-downloadmanager/ , by using this you will get those abilities but if you don't like that then you can find many other plugins which will do same but with different interface and themes and some different abilities too, for example another plugin is this : https://wordpress.org/plugins/download-manager/ , by just searching the main website you can find many of them doing what you need. now for the forum my suggestion is VBulletin which is not free but it is the best, so if you can pay then go for it and you will have no problem because you can find tons of documents and helps for it but if you can't pay the money then go for mybb or phpbb.I can't understand the problem you have with phpbb but you need to install it beside your wordpress in a different folder like /Forum and then pointing some sub-domain to it if you like. by the way the process of installation of PHPbb is just easy and i haven't found any problem with it in anytime. do not use script installers for installing phpbb, just install it yourself, it is very easy and you don't need much knowledge for doing that. if you faced any problem then just ask in their support forum which is very active and i can say you will get your answer in it within 4 - 10 hours, so by doing this you will also learn something more for your latter developments.In the end for the problem you had with phpNuke and youtube links, if you want a preview to be available in the content of your posted article then you need to use a plugin in wordpress which gives you the ability to embed a full featured youtube player into your post and contents and even in comments. again there are some plugins available for doing that, an example for you : https://wordpress.org/plugins/smart-youtube/

I'm a WordPress fan! Reason - It's the best!! It can be extended to a level that'll fulfill your requirement. WordPress has extensions where, it'll hhave that download counter script, use bbPress or buddypress for features like forum or other facebook like social networking features. WordPress+BuddyPress can be used to literally make a Facebook clone.... so will you still have doubts over it power? The concern raised by Iniyila that you may be running out of bandwidth and all is true, however you can relax till the time your site gets popular....
