Ah that confirms why I was getting 403 error messages when I had my VPN on the other day (I use NordVPN). I did figure it was a VPN thing as I’ve run into similar on other sites so didn’t log an error message. It’s not a big deal for me, though I understand it might be more of an issue for others.
I was wondering, and this may not be viable at all, is it possible to flag and exempt logged in accounts that use VPNs so this doesn’t happen for them? As in, my user account at fanlore has that kind of account flag (I reached out to them about it) so that I can access and edit entries even when my VPN is on, that was something they were able to do. The infrastructure here may be completely different though so this may not be a helpful suggestion at all!
