It honestly seems like it's more prominent in the ruby community, and I'm not entirely sure why. Part of it may be that ruby is so expressive and nice to work in that it ignites people passions, which can be good or bad... I can say, however, that years back when I was trying to get into ruby from PHP, people like this gave me a very negative view of the ruby 'community' and were the biggest obstacle I had to embracing ruby.
