MB World site forums won’t work with Nord VPN
Has anyone seen that this site requires Nord VPN to be turned off to access it? It won’t operate unless I do this!
Does anyone have a workaround?
Thanks

I have Express VPN and have found that some forum sites don't work if I'm connected to a certain VPN site. I asked about this and found that some forums have blocked that VPN site address because of fraud or inappropriate behavior from someone using the VPN site. I don't know if Nord allows you to select a different server site but if they do, try a few to see whether there's one that works for you.

Thanks John for the suggestion…
I Also hope that the MBWorld organizers can revamp their system so it functions with VPN”s like most of the rest of the world.

I've run across similar situations and sometimes it's because of certain certificates or other formalities that a service expects to see such as a current copy of something that isn't there. I would expect the answer is with Nord VPN or settings to allow this forum and not block it. Other companies like Microsoft are famous for not liking other programs or 3rd party apps and question their trust, security, or something to make the user doubt you should be using it. I'd think since you are going through their firewall that there shouldn't be any issues while on the forum.
