It's not really you I'm lashing out at, mind, it's more the artist seriously interpreting the situation and running with it like that. I know I tend to blow my personal pet peeves out of proportion, and I apologize for that, but this Derpy situation is kind of above and beyond...
 
I think the lack of an episode this week has gotten to everypony in the thread.

I just knew about the whole Derpygate thing and well... it left a sour taste in my mouth. Not as if it is the end of the world, but there we go, yet another small victory for puritanism 2.0 and the PC brigade embarking on their holy mission and making the world duller (and Derpy's scenes less funny, too). Gah. I need some cute in order to make up for that:

cute, but I think there's one thing that I've noticed I don't think anyone else noticed, the fact that Hasbro hasn't taken down any videos from my knowledge, or gone after anyone. I've noticed that lots of people announce that anything pony related they say MLP is owned by Hasbro something I haven't really seen much before with other things

Just heard the new Derpy and I really don't like the voice and how the rest of the segment was censored. This sucks about has bad as casey kasem crapping all over Aladdin.

They've gone after some videos on youtube, but they're not militant about it. They have a legal obligation to protect their brand, but at the same time they don't want to piss off the new fanbase.

That's only for the edit of "The Last Roundup". Derpy will be fine.

"On the issue on Derpy whether she'll have the same Derp face expression and stuff. As an animator of the show, rest assured, she'll be fine."

The fanbase can get a little melodramatic at times. Yes, it was lame that Hasbro changed Derpy but at least they didn't completely edit her out.

As promised, the first round of voting is now over, and the top three choices were, in alphabetical order:

- "I just don't know what went wrong!"
- "Oh, we got opportunity, in this very community!"
- "The fun has been DOUBLED!"

So, we now have a three-way (instead of two-way because there was a tie) runoff vote until post 20,000! Send me your PM's again, please!
 
Y'know, it occurs to me that the first thread didn't die until well after page 400, somehow or another.

So, uh, what happens if we hit 401? Will we get to engage in any awesome 4th Day bug scenarios or something?

Too lazy to PM. JUst count whatever fish votes for twice.

If a mod notices, instructions to get a new OT will be left or the thread will just be locked based on the understanding a new OT is forthcoming.

I believe "Mods are asleep, post ponies" rule applies.
 
- "I just don't know what went wrong!"
- "Oh, we got opportunity, in this very community!"
- "The fun has been DOUBLED!"

I'd be happy with either 1 or 3.

3 fits it being OT2, doubled and all that.

But 1 is the first line from the character who essentially represents and symbolizes the adult male internet fanbase of FiM

I don't really have a strong opinion on the matter but "fun has been doubled" sounds way better that "thread has been doubled" imo.

Message sent!

No points for guessing my vote.

All good choices but I'm going to go with "Oh, we got opportunity, in this very community!", since it's the only one with a double meaning since "The thread has been DOUBLED!" didn't make the short list.

We're going to cap this thread on the 1 year anniversary of the first thread.

EDIT: well, probably. Don't go overboard in posting for a few hours.
