Best to assume this won’t happen. That way, you’ll either be less disappointed when it actually doesn’t happen, or pleasantly surprised when it does.

Man, I was so excited for this! Too bad it’s just a fan work (still a pretty cool thing though). Oh well, hope springs eternal…

@Battle GT  
Any links?

This has been confirmed to be part of a fan project.

@Conspicuous Lad  
Oh that’s nothing I think there’s going to be a epic dramastorm with this announcement and when the episode/s where she appears finally appears.
 
The people who started derpygate are still in the fandom and refuse to leave. Hell someone I have the unfortunate pleasure to HAVING to talk to on a regular basis is one of those people. After this announcement I trololo’d the daylights out of him by telling him this and even though it was what a year ago he proceeded to lose his shit again and began calling me well. . . we all know.
 
I say when the inevitable dramastorm comes to pass that we don’t as a fandom argue with them, I say we mock the living daylights out of them and make fun of them and troll them.
 
Taking them seriously wound up with hasbro taking them seriously. If we don’t take them seriously and just trololo them then hasbro won’t take them seriously when they inevitably begin another dramastorm.

“so long as the fanbase is mature enough to handle it.”  
HA!  
Oh, wait, you’re serious, aren’t you?

(reads post)  
Grey pony!? Muffins!? I understand now!
 
Octavia confirmed for muffin-lover! :D

Well, I hope we don’t get an entire “Derpy episode” because then I would have to say they were pandering. I wouldn’t mind another voiced appearance, though… so long as the fanbase is mature enough to handle it.

Don’t put your expectations too high, guys.

Congratulations, Derpy, you’re the new Rarity.

@TheLoneLampman  
This.

…but I do miss Derpy, though. The whole “Where’s Derpy” thing in S2 was a really nice shout out to us from the show’s crew.

Yeah. I thought the same thing as OP but I’m not counting on it because of what Drefsab said.

V Oh shut up.

I think the bronies burnt the last Derpybridge when they got all butthurt over Derpys voicechange, that kind of ridiculous nitpicking is why we can’t have nice things.

May there be many more seasons and many more Derps. It’d make me so damn happy…

I’m really pessimistic.  
I hope I’m wrong!

Maybe at the end of ep13 after Twilight has become an alicorn and the world was saved, suddenly Derpy jumps out out of nowhere and delivers a “Celestia bless us, everypony.” And then curtain.

@Scout  
If the voice really comes from her http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yil9LSSLw-0 then this is gonna be good… I think.

Oh please let it be so.

We can always hope.

If she comes back, won’t she come back with that moronically flowery voice they edited in? Do not want.

Well I had exactly the same idea, funny thing :D

Well, Season 3 was being worked on smack-dab in the middle of the whole Derpygate nonsense, so it’s no wonder we haven’t seen her at all this season. I HOPE she comes back, but I dunno…
