    It does two things. 1) pushes the topic up to the top of the first page. 2) Serves as sort of a book mark and allows people to go back and find the thread (by looking at "my topics") without having to wade through pages of posts.

    irritating isn't it :-)

    Pushes it up the list if you want to promote its visibility, puts it in your list of recent posts so you can find it.

    A byproduct of the way this site puts the latest post at the top, which is fairly unusual.
