The registration door has opened for a limited time.

If you decide to take this momentous life-changing step and register, it’s not a bad idea to read all the rules and commit them to memory. The short version:

• Don’t register with a proxy.
• Don’t register with a throwaway email address.
• Don’t register more than one account at a time from the same Internet connection. BIG no-no.
• Don’t be a jerk.
• Don’t be a troll.
• Don’t be a sock puppet; if your account was previously blocked, it’s a bad idea to try to re-register on the sly. Stinky Beaumont hates sock puppets. He will find you. You don’t want Stinky mad at you.
• Do play nice.

And then everything will be groovy.

And the door slams shut, with 142 hatchlings and several sock puppet attempts. (They never stop trying.)
