    I edit wiki pages all the time for bad grammar and bad spelling. (Nice right?)

    I tried joining to Chat but it said I needed authentication, but when I went to the site the link to me to all I got was the 404 Error

    I can contribute about tactics like bomb jumping but i really suck at making stuff like those buttons that make one get to a specific link.

    wiki syntax for things like that is really basic, you should grasp it after reading a basic mediawiki tutorial. However, most of the data is stored in templates, which are a bit more complex than basic links. But you don't have to touch that if you just write up more general stuff :)

    I have quite a bit of wiki editing and hosting experience, I'll start chilling on the irc more and making tons more edits.

    Do you have adblock (or another adblocker) installed? Or Javascript disabled? We use recaptcha, so one of those may be blocking it.

    If something like that doesn't help, please take a screenshot and attach it to a reply here so we can look into the problem more. The registration seems to be loading/working fine for others who look at it

    Can some other people please register and post here saying whether they can or can not edit the wiki? Right now I have no idea if he is the only person having this problem. I need more data points.

    How about now? If they're still not working, try deleting and reuploading - I've fixed a permissions issue on the server which came about when we worked around a bug in PHP5.3
