auth.settings.register_onaccept must be a list of one or more *functions*, each of which will be called upon registration, with the registration SQLFORM object passed in as the one and only argument. Your current code instead actually does a database insert when setting up auth.settings.register_onaccept. So, every time the model file is executed (presumably on every request), you will get a database insert. Also, because the value added to the register_onaccept list is not actually a callable, you should be getting an error upon registration.
