I am absolutely disgusted with Mojang's obsession with adding mod features to Minecraft. That's what mods are for, because Minecraft DOESN'T have those features. How is Minecraft "vanilla" when it's full of these mod features??!!
That's why I play vanilla minecraft, because I DO NOT want to play with mod features! Stop implementing mods to your so called vanilla Minecraft! What, then, makes it vanilla?
Don't even get me started on enchanting! Why did we need to change it??!! Nobody except shallow minded noobs complained about enchanting. Why do we need to change it??!! Again!
There was nothing wrong with it. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!!
I don't play vanilla minecraft for Acacia and Dark Oak woods. I play it for the abscence of one-block "treecapitation". I play it because I don't want deer and birds and pegasi in it. If I want that, I'll download the mod. I don't want permanent mod features. That. Is. Why. I. Played. Vanilla. Don't ruin it!!!

if you are trying to 'Etho' people, you might want to put a little bit more thought into what you are saying, so that you come off as a level-headed, rational person, instead of a hormonal, rage filled, young teenager.
So what your saying is you don't want Mojang adding any type of new content to the game or at the very least search the ENTIRE internet and look at every mod made for Minecraft ever so that they don't add something to the game that has already been made in a mod? That seems pretty unreasonable and unfair to the people who enjoy the new content Mojang adds to the game. I for one have not had any issue with any Minecraft update sense Indev as I enjoy having new things added without having to download mods. The only thing I wish for Minecraft was that it was less resource intensive on my computer but that will change after I buy my new computer after I finish USAF basic training this spring :]
And now that I've replied to you in an intelligent manner let me reply to you in a manner more benefiting to your maturity level...
HURR DUR DUR DON'T LIKE DON'T UPDATE HURP DURP DURP!
If you're saying what I think you're saying, then it is literally impossible for Mojang to make ANYTHING that's not a "mod feature" under that logic, given the thousands of mods that exist.

Do you know what vanilla means? It means unmodded, meaning anything that mojang puts in there is vanilla.
If you don't like the updates get off of minecraft and play a different game.
Kids these days, get some update for free and complain about it.
Awesome, I haven't been able to get a good thread to do this for a while. My reply in italics.

Oh man! Guys, apparently trees are a mod feature. I didn't know that. I must have been installing mods without my knowledge because everyone is talking about this "fishing" business since what? Beta? Man I certainly was fooled.
You MIGHT have a case on with horses, but guess what? Minecraft is full of medieval and early human tech (swords, stone furnaces, chests), so really horses fit in.

I actually have great news for you: No mod features are added to Minecraft. Lucky you!
Don't even get me started on enchanting! Why did we need to change it??!! Nobody except shallow minded noobs complained about enchanting. Why do we need to change it??!! Again!
We needed to change it because it was horribly unbalanced. Plus there have been numerous threads about how enchanting mechanics needed to be fixed. Now Anvils have a more valid use as well as lapis.
Players also complained about having absolutely no control over their enchants, so now you get the first enchant, with the balance of sacrificing lapis.
There was nothing wrong with it. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!!
It was completely broken. Get a mob grinder, enjoy your level 30 Armor, Weapons and Tools. It doesn't encourage exploration or mining after a certain phase.
I don't play vanilla minecraft for Acacia and Dark Oak woods. Welp, Vanilla now has that! Enjoy! I play it for the abscence of one-block "treecapitation" Good thing that isn't being added. It sounds like you think that it is being added. I play it because I don't want deer and birds and pegasi in it. If you think these are being added as of now, you are high. Seriously now you are making a false arguement over the whole issue. If I want that, I'll download the mod. I don't want permanent mod features. That. Is. Why. I. Played. Vanilla. Don't ruin it!!!
FANTASTIC NEWS: Vanilla is still vanilla and it isn't ruined! Nice how you don't add any actual criticism on anything. Your only complaint was enchanting.
Considering how Mods have added Biomes, Mobs and Blocks, you never even mentioned the new stone types, 1.7 biome changes or chicken jockey.
I used to be down on new features. Hated the feature creeping. I thought witches and bats were stupid. I loathed the idea of horses. Lots of other things irked me as well when they were introduced.
But now? Minecraft wouldn't be Minecraft without those things. I have learned to just accept what the devs throw at us. Because they are professional game designers. And we are just the players who made a meager one-time payment and continue to get free content. They know what they are doing. They know when to add the right suggestion/mods into the game. You don't. So shut up, and let them continue to generate free content for your enjoyment.
Just because mods did it first doesn't mean it can't be a vanilla feature. You could replace the OP with a video of a small child crying and it would make no difference. Let's just move along people, nothing to see here...

1. Chill
2. That is just your opinion. Only a small percentage of players use mods. The majority of us that do NOT use mods want stable fun features added to the vanilla game.
I am always impressed by the hyumn race to behave thusly :
- Someone does something considered a bit rude or bad.
- Someone else reacts much worse but considers himself perfectly fine with that.
Someone pushing you down a cliff would be very wrong, right? And if that person simply shouts a bit in your face instead, that's still wrong, but given the choice, you'd probably find that less worse, right? Then why is it that people feel it is right to throw someone off a cliff just because they have shouted in their face? That's just "escalation". Human nature, yes, but still quite ugly. So yeah, original poster complained in a bad way, but several reactions here seem even worse.
On topic, personally given the choice between "no modificationss", vs "modifications some good some bad, some from mods, some completely original, but, overall, more features", like most everybody here I'd definitely chose the latter. And many of them modifications seem to target (if not succesfully at least they try) to improve game balance so yeah, every time (on average) that Mojang makes a change to something tat screws up say 5% of the players, it tends to actually improves things a lot for the majority of the rest.
Give it time, and give it a chance. Change is good. When the game will stop changing, it will mean a bad thing, for it will mean that it has died. Also, snapshots are just snapshots, we have often seen snapshot features reverted back soon after or even because their associated official release.
"Chill", like JorgTheElder said, is a very good suggestion, for everybody I think (even me!), not just the original poster.
why do they need ideas? Plenty of ideas from mod makers floating around that would do nothing but make minecraft better. Now if they would just add in the bookcase mod to make bookcases useful.......
By this logic, is vanilla and everything else should be removed, because vanilla is the unmodified game. If horses and these Worldedit-like commands are "mod features," then everything since Notch's first video of Cave Game isn't vanilla.
This sounds like a case of neomania - the obsession with only doing things new and different, as opposed to doing things that are good. I want Minecraft to be a good game, not an experimental game, and I'd like them to add *good* features, whether or not somebody else has done something similar before.
Neomania largely killed academic music a century ago. I'd rather it not do the same to Minecraft.

You could also argue the same in the other direction saying that the OP and you to an extent have a fear of change and don't look toward the future at all.
I'm so sick of your last paragraph. "I like to play like this, I like that"... Just stop. Your opinion is only 1 in 13 million. Don't think that you can get whatever you want. Other people like the updates.
Nobody except shallow minded noobs complained about enchanting.
Guess that makes you a shallow minded noob then huh.
Mojang isn't adding treecaptitation, they aren't adding pegasi, they aren't adding birds, and they aren't adding deer. If you're going to complain about something, at least complain about something that exists.
