The registration is currently shut down due to the spambot issue, unfortunately. Here's a post from stone himself, taken from Chat Thread days ago:
Quote from stone
What you don't realize is the bots are amassing posts and registering at such a rate that 30 mods active at the same moment couldn't get this nice of a job done.
I'm bouncing between reading up on the issue and seeing what we can do and removing them myself as well.

I've shut down registering ( essentially ) for the time being and going through alternative methods.

Probably the registration button will be back after the issue's down.

We've had a bad invasion of spambots across the forum and they were coming pretty much non stop, so stone's momentarily disabled the ability for new users to register. Sorry for the inconvenience, he'll be able to register again as soon as the problem is solved.
