good, you don't have to link to it, but if you see a derpy fight would you mind saying something along those lines.
For me?

I'm not sure if I could support someone who thinks Pinkie is better then Rarity.
That was great.Originally Posted by NeoCracker
Excellence with the PMV. I'm usually kinda wishy-washy with lip-synchy PMVs. Either they're spot on lip synching which is time consuming as all hell AND amazing, or the attempt at pseudo-kinda-maybe synching it distracts me too much from the rest of the video.
This one's concept was just too entertaining for it to bug me. So many amazing pony expressions. Must love, impossible to critique. RD is best bitter ex mare-friend.
I read it, and agree with it. I'm planning on getting something done at the wikia done portraying all points on the Derpy issue to be honest, if I find a way to reffence this, could I? I'm trying to draw attention to all sides, and explain how a compromise could go.
You sure could.

I'm not sure there is room for a compromise left. Usually when these things happen, there is a pretty vocal minority that if ignored or at least apologized to, will grudgingly disappear after a bit. Once you backpedal and cater to that small group however, you've given them confirmation that they were right, and that you were (accidentally) in the wrong. Now there's no getting them to back down.I read it, and agree with it.

Likewise, by supporting the minority, you've now got the majority of people riled up because you removed something they loved. Because you already caved to the whims of one group, this new, larger group expects you to do the same for them. You can't, however, because doing so would be hypocritical if you consider that the first action could be viewed as admission of guilt.
Long story short, they've got a self sustaining argument now. If Hasbro had just let Derpy be, this probably would have already blown over. By catering to a few trolls and politically correct fun destroyers, they've set themselves up with the expectation that things be retconned because of complaints, and raised up a new group of pissed off fans chanting that their will be obeyed. Even if Derpy comes back in her classic where's-waldo style, the pro-derp group is going to be mad she's been stuck in the background again. If they change it again, the anti-derp group is just going to re-double their efforts claiming she's mocking kids with downs. lose-lose.
For my next PMV, I think I'm going Metal.
DO EET.
It's my personal opinion that Big Macintosh and Applejack spent their adolescence bucking trees to Motorhead and Sabbath.DO EET.
Is anyone else going to join our PMV shenanigans? :P
No, I'll just watch.
I would if my computer could handle it, but it can't. Yes, my computer is that bad.
I sort of want to. I used to do a lot of work in Adobe Premiere during college, but I'm a little afraid of the amount of time I'd have to sink into it to do something decent and I'm not convinced I have that time.
