Description
If you haven't heard, there are a few rumors going around that Hasbro and WeLoveFine are either changing the name, voice, personality, or removing entirely the character of Derpy. D:This is due to the backlash Hasbro has received from a few people who are insulted at the premise that Derpy has "mental disabilities." These people seriously need to chill.
Let's keep our beloved heroine of Bronies as she is. Derpy is the symbol of our totally awesome relationship between fanbase and creator. We shouldn't let her be erased due to some peoples negligence of this connection.
The thing is, the studio and Hasbro knows how much we love Derpy, so I'm sure this wasn't done out of spite to us. And neither I nor anyone else can say why it was done, or who did this or that. There are some things we can't understand, and probably won't understand. Don't point fingers. Don't hate. And don't hate on the people who have a different opinion. Take a deep breath and be cool. Eat some muffins. Feel free to sign the edited petition. Derpy forever.

It seems WeLoveFine has given Derpy's name back on their products. Let's hope this is good news. Supposedly, her name is here to stay!

It's a shame that hasbro has to back down to a small number of sad individuals, They developed such a lovable innocent character and now because of some oversensitive morons they may have to get rid of her, to be honest this dosent suprise me, in this day and age and in the "nanny state" everyone is offended by something, in this case a cartoon pegasus in an innocent cartoon whose core demographic is between 4-13 year old girls, All cartoons have a clutzy character, they bring more comic value to the cartoon, where would the seven dwarfes be without dopey?, ed edd and eddy without ed?, the simpsons without homer?, i could go on, it's sad it truly is :/, but i hope this stupid thing blows over, and have our good ol' derpy back!

I agree with everything that you've said. So many shows use dopey, clumsy, or stupid characters as a core element in a show, sometimes so much that the success of a series is completely dependent on them. Derpy said like what, 6 lines in less than 2 minutes out of how many hours of MLP airtime? That's nothing! The creators gave us a nice little present and we're hurling it right back into their faces. I just hope people can get over themselves soon, I'd find this whole situation amusing if I wasn't shaking my head so much...

I'm really sad to hear this. Derpy is in no way representing a handicapped person, but more of just someone who's just really clumsy. I work with handicapped people and that's not how they are.

I know...it makes me disappointed that people could possibly get offended by a pony cartoon show.

It's possible that it could happen, unfortunately...
