Everyone who has been playing since beta/alpha know what I'm talking about. Back in the good old days, when chests were full blocks, and cobblestone had those dark lines, the community was mature, and respectful (I'm not saying that everyone's a jerk now) and a couple of people successfully created entertaining youtube channels, they didn't expect money, or subscribers. We had in depth mods like BTW that would add simple minecraft-like features. Now the community is made up of immature 5 year old griefers running around killing people and destroying peoples creations, youtubers are doing minecraft lets plays as an easy way to make loads of money and keep it all to them selves, saying DONATE SO I CAN MAKE ANOTHER HUGE MANSION!!! SUBSCRIBE CUZ I SAY SO AND IT WILL MAKE ME MORE MONEY!!!!!!! There are NO survival servers now, everyone's creating stupid faction servers, and mini-games (Which I personally dislike) but no one makes a simple vanilla server so people can play the game the way mojang created it. The mods too... the stupidest pointless mods are getting sooo much popularity, while the good ones have not a chance at being big. I don't mean to be Debby Downer here but really? is it just me? or is the community changing for the worse...
97% of teenagers would cry if they saw Justin Bieber on top of a tower about to jump. If you're the 3% who is sitting there with popcorn screaming "DO A BACKFLIP", copy and paste this as your signature. If Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter were all destroyed, 99% of teens would go insane. If you're one of the 1% that would be laughing at them, copy this into your signature and hope it happens.

There are still mods from back then.. such as buildcraft, IC2 (although tecnically it was IC1 back then, but still), and flan's mod. I think it's just you, I'm loving these new mods.
Ok so I didn't say it was not OK to create minigames... I just don't like them...
then dont be selfish now mojang even making like game utilities to minecraft in 1.9/1.8 updates like Specteactor mode if you dont like it play other games this is not the right place to complain there is alot of games there is Focusing on survival but minecraft is not only for survival
and if you dont like People minigames then create your own or create a request ...

Same thing that happened with the overall gaming community. It went mainstream. Just look at how music declined since it went mainstream. When it was just a handful of British people and some dirty hippies music was amazing, it was full of heart and soul and the lyrics were always poetic and about something deep and meaningful. Now our music mostly just involves some hot chick twerking to a dubstep beat while she repeatedly parrots some one-line hook that was decided by a market research team asking people to rate different words and then put through auto-tune. Either that or by social scientists wanting to brainwash you into being stupid. Once there is money to be made in something it loses its soul. Just look at all these crap servers selling $100 donations so you can play in a laggy mess and lose your stuff to rollbacks every few hours. And people pay for that.
Okay, whoa. I understand you want to rant, but I have somethings to say.
"...make loads of money and keep it all to them selves, saying DONATE SO I CAN MAKE ANOTHER HUGE MANSION!!! SUBSCRIBE CUZ I SAY SO AND IT WILL MAKE ME MORE MONEY!!!!!!!" Ugh. Not this cultural Marxism again. Now if you're saying they don't care about their business, that's something else.
"There are NO survival servers now, everyone's creating stupid faction servers, and mini-games (Which I personally dislike) but no one makes a simple vanilla server so people can play the game the way mojang created it." You don't like it, don't play it. Same thing with the mods. There are vanilla servers. You just have to find them.
"Now the community is made up of immature 5 year old griefers running around killing people and destroying peoples creations" Yes, yes. We all groan at the new demographic greed has brought us. More on that below.
Now, this is just my speculation. Mojang has gotten money hungry and is trying to squeeze every last bit out of Minecraft before the people move on. Which explains all the plushies, Let's Plays, and a Minecraft movie. The reason why Mojang chose this specific demographic (3-10) is because that demographic is the most vulnerable and the most easiest to take advantage of financially wise. Keep in mind, just speculation.

On the forums it's the opposite, high-quality, original mods are being praised and are being uploaded in dozens, while low-quality mods sink to the bottom. To name a few, Thaumcraft, Ars Magica, Tinkers' Construct, Buildcraft, Industrial Craft, Thermal Expansion, Mekanism, GregTech, Blood Magic, Botania, Immersive Engineering, Equivalent Exchange, Mystcraft, MineFactory Reloaded, Project Red, GLSL Shaders Mod, Optifine, JourneyMap, basically all of Reiki's mods (ReactorCraft and ChromatiCraft mainly IMO), Applied Energistics, EnderIO, and many many more. Don't single out low-quality mods when high-quality mods outnumber them 10 to 1.
The community is not getting worse, it's getting bigger and harder to find the aspects of it that you count as good, there are survival servers, they're just not the large public ones you see on Youtube, look at Reddit or other forums for them, they're there. There's threads like this made all the time.

I joined Minecraft less than two years ago, and yeah, the community in multiplayer is pretty dang awful. SO... i went to the server finding website... and clicked my preferences.
I play on a whitelist server with legit people that aren't obnoxious... If you don't like these annoying things, don't deal with them. Same with mods, I have just a few mods that are just for performance.
You also said "in depth mods like BTW that would add simple minecraft-like features." I don't know what you mean how something could be both in depth and add only simple features. But nonetheless, you can always choose not to use these mods or anything.
I haven't seen the community a long time ago in beta, but from what i've seen now its pretty terrible and there's no way that it had been worse than it is right now...
WolfSage is right, for Mojang it is all about the money now. This is no longer the game made by one guy as a hobby but a cash cow for a really lazy company. The plushies are really cute though.

What proof do you have? is it because Notch leave Mojang or because slow updates?
When minecraft first started it was a little known game and might have been considered "hipster" but now it's extremely popular and that has brought it into the mainstream which allows a lot of people who are annoying to join.

All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost
From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be the blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king

Are you saying the ore spawn mod is pointless and stupid.
There are still mods from back then.. such as buildcraft, IC2 (although tecnically it was IC1 back then, but still), and flan's mod. I think it's just you, I'm loving these new mods.
Some of the old mods (The popular and handy ones) are getting revieved.
