Am I seriously the only brony in this entire fandom who is completely indifferent to the whole Derpy/Ditzy Doo fiasco?

Possibly, though I have to say I'm not up in arms about it either :moustache:

Hopefully only in this case which, let's face it, has been blown WAY out of proportion (and that doesn't mean forever :raritywink:)

I'm just wondering, what is the "Derpy/Ditzy Doo fiasco" thing anyway?
Because I want to know what it is.

Basically in the episode "The Last Roundup", the creators gave Derpy, perhaps the most beloved of all background ponies, a voice and a name. Naturally, many bronies were extremely pleased with that development, only cementing their love for the pony. However, many parents complained that her voice and portrayal was making fun of mentally challenged people. They continued putting pressure on Hasbro to change the character or remove her from the show. Many bronies did not take this well, so they started a campaign to protect Derpy, spanning dozens of brony websites.

Then, The Last Roundup was removed from I-Tunes for a while. When it came back up, Derpy's voice was replaced with a more normal sounding voice, and her eyes were correncted. Plus, they also removed any mention of her name. This only served to piss the bronies off even more than before.

I for one, don't really give a crap if they change her voice or remove her from the show.

Well then you will not be forever alone. I still want Derpy's derp but I won't go FUS RO DAH on Hasbro for the change. I simply don't mind " Ditzy's" voice nor do I mine " Derpy's" voice. Sooo I am kinna on your side than I am on the other bronies side.

Thank God, I though I would have to bear it alone.
