Extra protection against spam and abuse on sign-up forms
Bericht: Update
Geplaatst: 25-06-2026
Your registration and sign-up forms are now even better protected. Recently, automated programs ("bots") were trying to abuse these forms to send large numbers of fake sign-ups.
We've added several smart checks to stop this. The forms are now better at telling the difference between a real visitor and a bot, and they automatically step in when a suspiciously high number of sign-ups comes from the same source in a short time.
What will you notice? Nothing — and that's exactly the point. For real users, signing up stays just as easy as always. Everything happens quietly in the background, and there's nothing you need to set up yourself.
The result: less spam, cleaner data, and more peace of mind in your roster.
