Squarely on topic for a sec. Stupid things:
Pyure 2013.
I have been part of the SimCity 4, RCT, and 18WoS modding communities, and it was never like this. Granted, they had their own issues - SC4 had a really bad problem with cliquey elites (high-level developers or forum admins who treated everyone below them like garbage), RCT had more people stealing mods than making them, and 18WoS was full of people who could not figure out how to open a link - but MC seems to be unique in the "I want it, therefore I deserve it" category.
Mob Talker mod?My spidey senses detect a boob mod coming up

Mob Talker mod?
Definitely adding that mod to my next modpack. At least it has open permissions....

Also a slight difference I've seen from my [very limited] experience with modded communities; Minecraft was the only one that doesn't yet have some kind of official modding framework in place.
(FTB/ATL/Technic/Curse/Forge et al are all 3rd party, not official Mojang stuff)
I've been in the Skyrim, Fallout New Vegas, WarThunder, SimCity, Sins of a Solar Empire, and PAYDAY 2 modding communities. They're nothing like this one.
Mob Talker 2 came out a while a go. Haven't actually checked it out so I don't know if it's any good or if anyone even makes things for it still.Mob Talker mod?
Do you really wanna know?
Okay, here it is.
I suspect most other mod communities attract a different age group, and different generations.
If you see the large portion of minecraft players as a young group (say, < 15) then I don't think it's hard to see where a lot of the kids that come over to the modded community dont share the same values as the other age groups. While the 'I want it therefore I deserve it' mentality isn't exclusive to kids, based on past experience I'd wager its more prevalent.
In general, of course (e.g. there's a Coolsquid exemption). Quite a few of the regulars here are young and don't share these attitudes at all.

Children and teenagers usually are far more selfish, yes, but many adults are, as well.
That said, yes, the game demographics strongly affect the modding community; MC has many children but also many adult players; SC4 had a lot of die-hard minmaxers and self-claimed professional designers...
Well there are occasions where the immaturity of young people shows, his includedIn general, of course (e.g. there's a Coolsquid exemption
he even admitted that himself
I rather put it on maturity than age group. For example, SkydoesMC. His large foo-foo channel generally consists of rather immature players. And because of his popularity is what makes up the majority of MC players. I mean, I'm 14 and I'm more mature than most of my friends.
Edit: Can we go back to idiocy in Minecraft, guys? I don't like rage debates
Why did you use skydoesmc as an example? It's a rather poor one, if one at all. Having watched his videos in the past, and been on his server, 99% of the stuff people say about skydoesmc is false. (The bad stuff)
