It means that your thread is stuck to the top of the list. It should get more attention, so your questions get answered and not overlooked.

Yes, and we do this in two cases: if the question hasn't been answered yet (0 responses) or if the thread is of particular importance or interest to the forums (such as the Introduction survey in Introductions)
