And she's not 'gone', they just changed her voice to be less incredibly offensive to people with disabilities, and no longer have her being called an insult.They changed it because it was really, really hurtful and upsetting to a lot of people. I can't understand why anyone would have a problem with something hurtful being changed to be less so.Wile we are at it lets change Glee so everyone is exactly the same. And they can change FIM so every pony is green, as all other colors offend me.

But people are offended by a lot of stuff. I mean you can only please half the people half of the time at best....Im tired of everytime someone get offended about something it has to be changed. I stopped walking on eggshells for people long ago. Because if you give them an inch they will take a mile....now what else will they deem "offensive"
I started a thread on this yesterday but I think it got deleted, because I can't find it anywhere.
People seem to be forgetting that this is a show for children, not adults, and that they should be the top priority. If even one or two kids were hurt by the portrayal of ':muffin: Pony', then I'm happy it was changed. I couldn't care less how many bronies or adults are upset that their beloved pony got changed, because they're adults. They can deal with it.
