Oftentimes, people want to be able to refer back to a Topic or individual Post on the forums for reasons such as:

Like most membership-type web sites, Lottery Post requires the use of a Username and Password to identify yourself to the system, and gain access to your account.

Clearing your cache to try and fix page errors

Every time you visit a Web page, your browser saves the contents of the page, as well as all the images and other files that are necessary to make it work. Then, when you re-visit the same page, it uses the saved files for that page, because it's quicker than having to download them again.
