    If you just make a link to the register page its legal.
    If you use the adsense banner to make money from registered users you will get banned. Because you are not allowed to encourage people to click on it.

    I have an AdSense blog too but I do not use AdSense on it because of the (quite obvious) conflict of interest. I'm personally of the view that placing a referral link after a post about referrals is, although not technically against the TOS, asking for future problems.

    You can't encourage them to click on it, but you can recommend it. But you have to make it clever and according to their tos.
