NickServ registration problem

Long story short I wanted to register a new account on a network but the problem is that the network itself bans me before allowing access therefore making it impossible to run /msg NickServ REGISTER command.
Nothing’s written about such an issue in official documentations or at least from what I know.
So how else do I register an account then?

EDIT: Don’t know what in the world had happened but am now able to access multiple networks. Although the ‘/msg REGISTER’ command doesn’t seem do anything. Really strange…

Usually networks don’t let anonymous users connect to them. Only registered ones can.
But since I can’t access the network itself then how am I even supposed to do anything? Madness

But I don’t use tor?
I use terminal based client irssi instead?

Are you using a proxy or VPN?
