Anybody who's ever run a site with user-generated content quickly changes their opinion about free speech.
The internet has all the freedom you'll ever need, but you shouldn't expect to have that freedom everywhere you go on it. You can post anything you like to your blog, but I can't post anything I like to it. I have to do that at my own.
Deleting obnoxious custom maps from a video game is no different from trimming Ugg Boot spam from the front page of HackerNews. It's not impinging on anybody's freedom in any meaningful way. It's just making the game universe a better place to be.
