I've seen some vBulletins (like Nintendorks) where thread ratings are actually used... there are stars by the names of threads on the main page, based on the average of the ratings of people who have rated the thread. No use except to show how much you like the thread... kinda...

Not saying you'd want to do that, but it is a legitimate function. :evilha:
