Ok im sure theres a topic out there SOMEWHERE about this, lol.
But why does deleting cookies make the offer approve? I am just curious ^^
There will always be people who say mean words because you are different, and sometimes their minds cannot be changed. But there are many more people who do not judge others based on how they look or where they are from. Those are the people whose words truly matter.

Because if you go back to do the offer again and your email automatically pops up, then you might not get credit for what you've done, because you've already done it before. And delete them for fast approval I think.

I believe that it's because if the advertisement site detects its own cookies within your system, then it'll "know" that you've already signed up for its stuff. Therefore, it's useless to advertise to someone who's already seen their products/services/etc. By clearing your cookies, you get rid of "traces" that the site detects from you, making it think you're a new and potential customer.

They lag your computer, that is really about it though. This is because they occupy temporary memory space similar to temp. internet files. If you have firefox you can just set it to delete them daily, internet explorer users will have to do it manually since it is an inferior browser and prone to forget scheduled memory based events, such as daily cleaning of temp. internet files and cookies; along with browser history.

They are reqiured to be deleted because with offers, if they still remain there and you do another offer with the same company, It most likely wont approves since they still can detect the track cookies they left on your pc. Its also best to delete it because it can slow down your pc dramatically even especially if you never delete them (happened to me when i knew nothing about pcs). Its always best to clean your pc daily if at least weekly to rid of those cookies, temporary files, history and even registry.
