A good question would be "Why are so many people downloading mods so weird?". Like what makes them feel like they're entitled to tell a mod author what they can or can't do with their mod? And who cares whether they do it for attention or not. If you're jealous of their receiving virtual approval, don't praise them for their work. Don't endorse them, don't vote their mod as MOTM, don't donate, in fact, don't even look at their mod lol. Its not like they're getting paid or anything and getting a "I LOVE THIS MOD" hardly pays for whatever amount of time they put into their mod. The way I look at it, there are literally thousand of high-quality mods on the Nexus. It won't hurt anyone if one author decided to give their one final "Screw you guys, I'm eating my mods and ain't nuffin you can dew bout et!". I wouldn't blame them either. Way too many people confuse being a troll with constructive criticism. And don't get me started on those realism freaks....xD
