Well, it's because making her an omniponent being is not something that should happen, at least not until the real definitive finale of the series.
If that happens and it's permanent, she'll just become a fancy mary sue and everything we love about the cartoon will slowly die. Becoming more and more a "little girl's show" than a "neutral show". I bet the non-hasbro executives people working on the show wouldn't like that.

I think.

@DiscordedTeeJay - Well that ruins everything. Hopefully you'll find it again. Too bad about the blog and someday I will defeat you on Kid Icarus and Mario Kart 7. Someday!

@CoporalPegasus - I wish I did not read that but as I can find it nowhere on the web. I'm assuming it false. It is only on that site. Equstria Daily has nothing about it, nor does any other part of the internet.

@CorporalPegasus I don't believe the rumor is true, but I wouldn't be surprised to find Hasbro has plans to phase out Derpy. She is one controversial little pony, and they probably see her as bad press. The only thing that doesn't make sense about the post is the part about the possibility of firing over these details. If that were true, why post about it at all, I'm sure rumors like this would make it's way back to Hasbro. I believe this line was added to help give this rumor more weight.

Well, Derpy is in the iOS game and not only is she derpy, she's also a homeless creature more akin to a wild background critter than a pony character.

Really? That's certainly good news. I had no idea she was in the game, I still haven't had a chance to play it.

She appears from time to time inside a box a la Solid Snake.
Tap the box and she does a reveal dance and coins appear, then she'll clumsily walk around the town for a while and interact with the other ponies she finds.

To quote someone from another forum:

"This was passed as a rumor and was directly addressed in a context that would only target to piss off us bronies, quite literally.

It's a troll post. No worker from Hasbro would address it in such a defeatist and hopeless manner, as if to say all is lost. That was just part of the message that was specifically written that way in order to try and piss us off.

Words such as, The Ugly. That word used in context with the Derpy subject proves that this guy knew exactly how to sting us with the right words and get a negative reaction from us, in other words, it was an attempt at Trolling."

@DiscordedTeeJay I have another Tumblr called Starship-Crusader. That was me, and I offered the exact same thing as Kid Discord did. Probably should have told you that was me...

@CorporalPegasus That would be, for a lack of better phrasing, corporal suicide (No, I'm not trying to make a pun on your username. Sorry :S) If Hasbro did that, then they would effectively kill the entire fanbase. Unless DHX and the writers make it temporary, or at least create appropriate buildup, then I could see it pass. Maybe.

And now, a vector I did for something else I've been working on:

So what do you think? Are the gradients convincing enough?

Next up, a Derpy-fied version of this:

So, first I'm challenged to go the whole weekend without electronics by my teacher as extra credit, and then I had to hold off watching the latest two episodes (didn't come here in the meantime in order to avoid spoilers).... and then I was busy some more. I actually found some rather.... interesting art. But let's start with what I thought of the last two episodes.

SPOILERT
Magic Duel was pretty good! Seemed rather dark for a regular one parter, but as someone said here, they might have intended this to be the two part premier until Hasbro told them to do something to sell some toys. Also, am I the only one that thought Pinkie looked really cute without a mouth? Must have been a nightmare for her to go through that, but I thought it looked so cute when she had a happy expression on her face (er, well, her eyes I guess) that I made it my avatar!
And Sleepless in Ponyville was pretty good too! And totally reminded me of the Avatar: The Last Airbender episode where Aang can't sleep, especially at the end. Minor Avatar TLA Spoiler When Dash came into the dream sequence I yelled "No Firelord, you're not wearing pants!" End MATS
Yeah, I could say more, but you guys pretty much nailed almost everything.
SPOILEND
So, the art. It's a loosely kept secret ("loosely" because it's out now ) that I like seeing characters transformed into other creatures so.... have some pony lamia! (Which is a female naga, which is half human, half snake. Or in this case, half pony, half snake)

But wait! There's more! CMC! Princesses! Derpy! A bunch of ot...

And centaurs!

And.... cows.

(Yeah, Twilight Sparcow is listed as mature on the source, but I don't think it deserves it. If Barnyard can get away with udders hanging everywhere and be a G/PG movie, I think the artist was being a little too cautious ("I put milkdrops and a puddle underneath her, I'm not sure if dA looks too kindly on that sort of thing so I photoshopped it out. At least, that's what I did the last time I did something with udders... whenever that was.... anyway, if it seems okay to submit that, I'll definately give it a strict filter."))

Alright, that's enough art. (Click for sources on all o dem)

POTENTIAL SPOILERS BUT MAYBE NOT I DUNNO
About that troll pic.... yeah it was a troll, but there is a bit of truth behind it. While the Derpy thing is skeptical, we do have proof that Twilight will be an Alicorn, at least for a time during the finale. Hopefully she ends up losing her alicorn powers before the episode ends, because if Hasbro pushes them to keep Twi an Alicorn, it will alienate the fans, the franchise, and Hasbro as a comapny that at least gives somewhat of a crudmuffin about their franchises outside of toys (Not like they didn't do that enough. They didn't do a very good job with show accurate toys when the show began, and when they got better, they only made them better because the fans promised money. But at least they're good enough of a company to listen to such demands.) And the whole Derpy thing? Is Hasbro REALLY that scared of controversy that they're phasing her out? They could just say "Don't make her talk, and don't make her anything more than a background pony/Where's Waldo." One of the fun things about watching episodes twice is trying to find Derpy in the background. During season 2 she was in the some of the best and most hilarious hiding spots (in the snowglobe, anyone?). Hasbro can't be so cruel as to take that away from fans. If they didn't want to resist "fan backlash," they wouldn't have even tried phasing her out in the fist place. If Derpy isn't found in an episode, someone is going to say "WHERE'S DERPY?" and when 5 or so episodes go by without a trace of her, the bronies will be angered. Some might even stop watching the show and buying merch. It's a stupid reason to stop watching, but some people go to extremes to get what they want. Woah, that was a huge rant there. TL;DR Derpy's removal = Not happening.
END POSSIBLISH SPOILERS

And now it's time to talk role play.

INCOMMING ROLE PLAY ANNOUNCEMENT!

Yeah, the last time I talked role play (or if by "talked" you mean "mentioned," second to last) I disappeared. But I'll be on break in a week and a half, and I assume a lot of others will too, so hopefully we can all get together and start RPing again! I'll start one when I get off break, to assure that I won't disappear as soon as it starts. But in the meantime, if you want to start the RP before I do, be my guest. I'll join in when I can (maybe earlier than before I go on break. Depends on my estimated work load.) Here's my original RP announcement from a few months ago minus my actual move in the RP (when/if I do start it, I'm using something different anyway. I wanted to start it with something looser):

You know what? It's time for a new RP.
For you new guys, once in a while we role play ponies. You can be anypony in Equestria, that hasn't been chosen by somebody else, or you can be an OC. The only rule we have about OCs is no Alicorns. Also, you can only play as one pony.
Here's a list of chosen ponies, from our Twilight Sparkle, Aqueous. I've bolded the ponies of players that haven't been on the thread or I haven't heard from in a long time. You can choose them, but if you do, you should be willing to give up the pony/dragon/rabbit you play as should the original player come back. But remember, you aren't limited to the list. There's more canon established ponies than there are in this list.

@CorporalPegasus Yeah, I don't see it as being reliable. Probably just a troll posting that, but time will tell.

@Wildvine53 I saw those in an advertisement, but have yet to see them face to face. Thanks for the closeup.

@Chrysalis You are? Well count me out of reading it then.

@ToastyYogurt Wow, that is one massive post. I see your back in full force then. And no, I don't really see the udders as being a problem, though I must say they do indeed look slightly creepy. I also look forward to another RP. I'll wait a bit though, but I would love to join in the fun.

@Applejacklove: Ikr? I added another P.S. about that right before I saw your post! And thanks for assuring me the udders weren't bad, I was worried somebody would be offended by them. I do agree that they're creepy. When I first saw them on Pinkie, I thought they were unmentionables. Then I started wondering why a mare would have those parts.

@Discostew: How'd that happen? Yeah, RPing happens right here, alongside the usual commotion. RPing is usually separated in somepony's post from the rest by itallics, bold, and/or one of these guys:


Now if you excuse me, I'm going to search for a ritual to release the Rick Ashley from my body.

Yay RPing! Ill be Dash again, of course

Looks like the whole Derpy phasing out was just a troll action then. Well for the better.

Oh, dang. Didn't mean to upset you or anything, but I totally missed it, sorry! I see it now though. Kid Discord sent hers to me in a fan mail so it got my attention that way.

I'm still open to learning how to use other programs, though. Maybe I'll take a crack at vectoring again. Imagine: Show-accurate Tender Page! Eyes glaze over Well, show-accurate may be shooting a little too high, but I'll settle for nice clear updates!

I could think about getting back into RPing here again. I'll be my OC! But...will I have to give up Spike?

@Teejay: Good to see you're getting back together with your Tumblr! I've been reading it, it's pretty good. And unfortunately, the RP rules state that you can only play as one pony. By "pony" I meant any character (better fix that loophole). So, you can either be Tender Page or Spike, but not both. Sorry. At least you have a week to decide, unless someone decides to start it early (Which would be nice, I barely have an idea on how to start it! If only @PlasticRevolver was around....)

@CorporalPegasus: Another episode leaked? This is the third time! (Hearts and Hooves Day, then Too Many Pinkie Pies, now this) iTunes really needs to get their act together, huh?

@Everypony: It's good to see so much enthusiasm for role play! I know we have some ponies here that haven't seen us role play at all, so I'll look to finding one of our best old ones. Right now, I'm on my iPhone, and I need more time anyway to sift through pages of forum. (I've been working on a chronicle of the old ones, but I haven't got back to it in a while).

@ToasyYogurt - Quite creepy. I'd almost say you are close to NSFW but I think your right in that you are fine with those.
I'll play. Though, I'm thinking I'll wait for you, not fair otherwise. Unless there are rejections, I'll keep Twilight. Kind of use to playing as her now. Also some of those names haven't been seen in sometime, maybe those characters should be freed up?
Let's see if I can find Shantae for this new Naga problem.

@Discostew - Yup, it happens right here. Now to see if we can have one run from start to finish successfully.

@CorporalPegasus - Thank you, this time I think I'll wait for it to air properly though.

@GuardianKing - You should check with the Nintendolife Artists Thread on it.
