Gary LeVine posted a statusBy now I am pretty sure that everyone has seen the Derpy speaking scene from the episode "The Last Roudup" (If you haven't then I suggest watching it in one of the Dicussions currently posted in this group). However, aparently their has been controversy about our favorite Muffin Lovin' mare recently. While I don't fully understand the details, I'm pretty sure EQD has all the info.
Now there is a re-edit to the Derpy scene that has struct up some issues amongst our community. I felt it is only right to hear what you guys think, so I am posting the editted scene here (and yes this is official):
Personally I don't mind the new voice, as I recall many had issues with the original voice (I actually grew to like the original voice). I think what really gets people is the deletion of her name from the scene, but that seems to be it. So what do you guys think?

I'm autistic and I loved her old voice,it fit her character and was really funny,but ooooohnooooo the fucking soccer moms had to get all butthurt and had assume that Derpy was making fun of mentally challanged people. I assumed that the staff would just pull the episode for a while or something until everyone forgot about it,but I guess they caved into the PC nazis. And I'm incredibly dissapointed in them.
I find it offensive that they CHANGED Derpy. Parents might as well ask ME to stop being so socially awkward becuase I make other autistic people look bad.
