Why is Newgrounds allowed

I don't know either. The site has essentially no moderation, thus there is a LOT of inappropriate stuff on there. Some examples are-

Just because it isn't blacklisted doesn't mean it is allowed, blacklists are only really used for very frequently referenced sites, and I have hardly seen it (directly) linked.

I am 99.9% sure it isn't allowed.

aII toasters toast toast, but what happens when there are no longer toasters being produced? will their technology simply become obsolete, with humans moving onto bigger, better things? will toast become a distant memory, written in textbooks of the future as foods us simpler generations ate? who's to say! society is constantly moving, changing, evolving, ideas being built upon, improved upon, theories being proven or disproven. are we but a blip on the timeline? sure, our names may not be remembered, but that's not the point. you can make a change. you can make a difference. you can make the world better, even if you don't know yet. and the first step is to go for it. even if you are afraid of failure. going back to the example of toasters, do you know off the top of your head who invented them? no? have you used one? probably. so, even if you don't remember my name, if I was able to help awnser your question, that is enough. if I was able to help you, even in the slightest way, this could push you to continue with scratch and not give up after the program crashes, and maybe one day learn other programming languages and change the world. everything is a cause and effect reaction, new inventions lead to the technology of the future, and even as the generations of the past are slowly forgotten, their influence lives on to this day, affecting how the world eventually turned out and how it will be for generations to come.

and, without toasters, we wouldn't have toast.

I believe mtech22 already answered your question. Just because newgrounds isn’t blacklisted by the filter doesn’t mean it is allowed. If your question is still “Why is is newgrounds allowed?,” do you have a source to show it is allowed?

Is your question actually “Why is newgrounds not blacklisted?” If so, the Scratch Team doesn’t blacklist every site that is bad. I believe they blacklist sites on a case by case basis, when either a site is very dangerous or the website is commonly shared and takes up moderator time. Newgrounds doesn't necessarily fit into either category, since there is a lot of safe stuff mixed with the bad stuff, so some links aren't immediately dangerous. I am not saying newgrounds links are allowed, but that they are not always immediately dangerous.

I feel like what you might really be trying to say is “Scratch Team, take a look at this and add newgrounds to the filter.” If so, the forums is not the right place to suggest filter changes. Use Contact Us instead.

I thought they banned it, because a scratch wiki edit was removed from the edit history that included newgrounds.

Just to clarify, I believe @Paddle2See gave an answer on your other topic: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/559154/?page=2#post-5815495

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.

I was a Scratch Team member from May 10th 2019 to October 29th 2021.

The site can still do a lot of good things just like Paddle2See said from your suggestion. This is probably the main reason why it's allowed.

Paddle2See wrote:

This is correct, so far as I know. A lot of good content is there, often with licensing that encourages creators such as Scratchers. We do encourage Scratchers to only include links to appropriate content, however. This can often be accomplished by linking directly to the page with the content you want to reference. Of course, if you do find a link that leads to inappropriate content, please use the Report button to let us know.
