Glad to know it wasnt just me! I just signed out overnight as well, thought it was just my browser getting rid of some cookies but i wasn't signed out of any other site.

Using windows 10, firefox 127.0 . Was signed out while i was offline so it wasnt related to any activity on NG specifically!

Got logged out 2 days ago. Signed back in yesterday. Today I got an email dated about an hour ago saying


"This is an automated message from Newgrounds.

There's been a new sign in attempt on your Newgrounds account.

If this was you, please enter the code below to continue:"


This was NOT me an hour ago! Changed password but something has been compromised around here!

I was logged out yesterday, Windows 10, Firefox, had to log back in and was sent an email veritication code thing, then just a short bit ago I was sent another code as if there had been another log in attempt that was not me. Thing is, it was the exact same code as I got yesterday. Was this just a resent email?

Response to Get Logged Out? + NordVPN Update 2024-06-22 23:02:54


Just now, Windows 10, Firefox. It made me enter a code from my email to log back in.


Shoot, I thought it was weird and almost posted on another forum, but I was logged out some time near the middle of the week. I'm on Firefox 127.0.1 (64-bit)/Ubuntu, and do not use NordVeep. Haven't been logged out again since, though.

NG password was changed soon as I saw the 2nd email. No other places use the same password. The email keeps recent activity for the last 30 days. No one but me has tried to sign in to my email account.


I think I got logged out like 2 days ago, I was using Google Chrome and had two-factor setup. It logged me out on mobile too. I run Windows (PC) and Android (Mobile).

Same thing happened to me, then I'd noticed the second email had the same code as the first. I'm wondering if something about the site is just resending the email

Was logged out today for the first time on Android Chrome 126.0.6478.110

I don't have either email to see if they where the same code. I make extra sure to delete those types of emails just in case those code do stay active by some mistake and than I get email hacked and lose more things by have emails like that laying in the trash.



Got logged out, using opera gx. Just had the tab open in the background so I cant pinpoint the exact time that it happened, but if I had to guess it was probably yesterday, 06/22

It is likely from some internal changes, will hopefully get solved this week!

We see why it's happening, basically anyone who has been logged in for over a year is getting logged out (they aren't supposed to be, the clock is supposed to get reset whenever they are active on the site but that apparently stopped resetting around this time last year). The full fix probably won't be today, I'll make a post when that's all sorted out.

Confirming that this is probably what happened. Also means that just logging back in should fix it for at least another year.


Failing over and over doesn't make you a failure. The only failures are the ones who don't try.

It's so good to know what actually happened now.

I was worried at first that something unsavory might have happened, so it's good to know it was just a hiccup and nothing bad. Thanks for all the time you and the team put into solving this for us all :)

Got logged out as well, on two computers, both running Firefox - somewhere last week. On my phone (Chrome on Android) I had no issue at all.

Response to Get Logged Out? + NordVPN Update 2024-06-24 05:13:27


Was Logged in on 6/23. Noticed I was logged out when I went to check NG at 4 am on 6/24.

Any idea as to why the log in code emails would be resent, as seemed to happen to some folks?


I don't remember if it was saturday or sunday (june 22/23) but I was logged out of all of my devices sometime over the weekend. That was:

-Brave browser - Android

-Firefox - Win10

-Firefox - iOS


I use Nord VPN but haven't had any issues beyond that one-time logout situation.


Good news is 2FA works like a charm.
