Should Newgrounds be banned?

Blackout32

Ok, so one day I was on the fourms and had this thought. I've seen a lot of scratchers, popular and non-popular, show newgrounds links. Newgrounds is a music and game website, but i've seen a lot of music newgrounds links. I'm pretty sure the links should be banned, because they do not have a filterbot, and the A-word is on every audio page, which are the pages most scratchers link to.
By any way, I do NOT reccomend you to visit newgrounds. Don't say I didn't warn you.

I'll just tell them to link the raw audio file.

I don't think those links should be allowed on scratch because of the swears.

Absolutely, but if you want to add music, and you're sure its clean, download it and upload it.

If it's inappropriate, they shouldn't be allowed to link it.

You can't just ban every single website that may contain something inappropriate - it's the responsibility of the user to link to appropriate content and if it's not appropriate it should be reported.

Check out Life Raft Survival, my new advanced sandbox survival game with crafting, building, transportation, weather events, tropical storms, and more!

In the game you're stranded at sea after a mysterious crash and must survive in an unforgiving tropical island environment collecting resources and crafting, in an attempt to finally be rescued.

Yeah, but a ban makes it clearer to users that this isn't an appropriate website to be linking. You're right, it would be impossible to ban everything, though banning more popular websites that are inappropriate gives users an idea of what kinds of websites are allowed and what kind of content they shouldn't link to. Since links to the site would be inappropriate anyway, banning them is mostly just there to change user attitude towards linking the site by making users more likely to report the inappropriate links.

The website still contains appropriate content, so banning the site outright wouldn't do anything. Only sites that only contain inappropriate content should be banned.

Not really, as stated in the op, there are swears on every page and the ads are questionable. I would say that it would be banned and to report all posts and comments with links to it.

Sadly, this is a website designed for ages 8 and up. This isn't a 13+ website, so you gotta follow the guidelines. Besides, Newgrounds isn't really a good place to learn…good stuff.

hi i love Fnf like very much

Nah, he meant just the links on scratch, which he have a justifiable point on it, the site is NOT made for little kids, for example, what if a little kid, let's say age 6, stumbles upon Newgrounds, the site that homes _____'s school. Kid would come across something disturbing and be disturbed for a while.

Google lets you find inappropriate stuff, so Google should be banned from Scratch.
