I wanted to post something anonymously in a forum that allows this, and got the following error message: However, I am in the UK so I don't understand why it is blocking me from posting? I have double checked the location of my IP address and it says Harrow, UK

We use the Maxmind GeoIP database to resolve IP addresses to their locations, it's very rare that they'll have a mistake present for very long. That being said, you can contact them at support@maxmind.com to inform them that your IP address should resolve to the UK. Sorry for any inconvenience caused
