As long as you have your cookies turned back on, deleting cookies should only effect the very next time you visit the sight (or possibly each area of teh site).
This site should place a new cookie on your hard drive once you have logged in and visited the forums, etc. If you have turned off the feature that allows the site to store cookies on your hard drive, you will need to provide new information each time. The same with tenporary files that allow teh site to build on your screen faster, the next time you visit it checks your harddrive to see if you already have teh latest version of each file it needs to build, and only rebuilds those that have changed from the version stored on your harddrive.

Incase anyone hasn't noticed, I frequently mis-type "teh" for "the". Sorry for any confusion this adds.

Make sure your cookies are turned on then go to "preferences" and tell it to store your username and password for a year. The next time you post, it should remember your username and password.
