    I think it's just for people to know that the thread is worth reading...

    ...although no one uses it...

    From the FAQ:

    How do I rate a thread?

    You may find a small menu on thread pages which allows you to 'rate this thread' with a number between 1-5.

    Casting a vote for threads you view is entirely optional, but if you think that the thread is superb, you might rate it as a 5-star thread, or if you think that it's unspeakably dismal, you might choose to rate the thread with a single star.

    Once enough votes have been cast for the thread rating, you may see a set of stars appear with the title of the thread in the thread listings. These stars reflect the average vote cast, and can allow you to quickly see which threads are worth reading if you are on a very busy board with a lot of threads.

    Look at this thread, and hopefully, if my vote was casted, you'll see stars.

    Thanks!

    BTW: it's 'Moderator', not Moderator.

    Yeah, that's the difference between "legit" and legit.

    Hey thanks.. I was just curious on that matter because i could see rating a thread that is not yours and you think that it is good.
    but i cant see why someone would rate their own thread. I think it's to get a reply faster.
