while i was changing my pfp and adding new hyperfixtations to my desc, i got a popup! "sorry, but you're too young to have a profile!"
...but i exist? the minimum age (as far as i know) ppl can be on newgrounds is 13? i'm 13?? vro whats going on
was there a change to the rules?
Like Sou said, the minimum age got bumped up recently - you've been grandfathered in, so you won't need to worry about getting the banhammer.
You missed a fuck ton lol
Recently, Newgrounds bumped the age to 14 to avoid getting fucked over by the law, and it will gradually increase to 16 by the end of the year.
Not to worry! As you're immune from this rule, as you made your account before it. But some people don't know how to read lol
@TinFoi what’s next having to be the website only for 21+
@AlexToolStudio Doubt it
SouSTAR
A lot of different countries like the UK are changing their laws for website's use and "age protection".
So Newgrounds had to adapt accordingly
Tom Fulp made a statement about that :
