English term or phrase: The opposite of inviting
context :

The opposite of inviting other people to be site members, is the ability of others to request to be members in your family site. You can determine whether or not this is possible in the Privacy Preferences (see below). Default: yes. People submitting a membership request are required to provide their full name, email address and reason for the request for you as the site manager to evaluate their request.

Explanation:
Does it really need introducing as 'the opposite'? It's not quite right to say that the opposite of you inviting members is users submitting a request to join, so I would just ignore that part. Even if that was technically right, it gives absolutely no additional useful information.

agree  Germaine: Effectivement. Si l'on vient d'expliquer la possibilité et la manière d'inviter, "inversément" ou "à l'inverse" et même "Par ailleurs" peuvent assurer la transition.
