So what you are saying is as soon as he gets the login error,as quickly as possible before his ip changes is to submit a removal?
That may be difficult to do for him now he is leaving for open water to Hawaii.
He may want to reduce the SFS level or disable it if he is constantly gaining new IP addresses from a global satellite internet receiver during his travels. I dont know how global satellite internet receivers distribute/rotate/expire IP addresses, as I only have ever used the more common wireless network connections such as wifi and cellular from the major providers within north america.
You have four choices; A) Manual (initial setting), B) Semi-Auto, C) Auto with message to registrant, and D) Auto with silent Fail. Each have their pros and cons.
StopForumSpam Protection Levels available within UBB.threads:- Manual - This allows the Admin to easily check new registrations with one click
- Semi-Auto - This automatically checks new registrations in member management, but might delay, if there are timeouts with StopForumSpam
- Auto with Message - Adds to Semi-Auto and gives a new registrant a message that they were blocked and how to remedy the situation
- Auto with Silent Fail - Does what Auto with Message does, but fails silently, which might fool spammers into thinking they signed up.
At the end of the day, all of this may be moot if he will have zero access while in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. These suggestions and the ones Gizmo has provided are common for admins who are at free hotspot zones such as hotels, train stations, coffee shops, or using a VPN providing IP address groups which are IPs also used by spammers and other abuser types. Again though, look at adjusting your SFS level if your current SFS level is causing issue for you.
