It means that the message"thread",(postings) on message boards are stupid pointless etc,hence the description"gay".
It's not to imply that the messages are homosexual.
It's a quick way to let others know that they shouldn't waste their time to read through though,so use it!

I'm not too sure, but I'll take a wild guess. A "thread" usually refers to an online discussion group subject. For example, there might be a discussion about history. Then someone decides they've had enough of the topic and wants to go on to another subject, so they start a new "thread". In the example you present, apparently the subject concerns or is about homosexuals and/or lesbians. At least that's what it connotes to me, but I may be wrong.

You should eat some cookies and go to sleep for a while after reading all the answers. You will wake up with a new understanding of life and how to pet a cat.

Gay means "absurd". I've also heard gay used to mean stupid ("That's the gayest suggestion I've ever heard!") or non-functional ("This flat tire is [unprintable] gay!") It follows on how the original meaning of the word gay has changed over time, from meaning happy, to referring to homosexual; that is, from sex that actually causes babies to sex that has no biological functionality.

It means the thread is lame, not worth reading, full of vapid airheadedness.

it means "this string of message board comments are gay"
gay is commonly (inapropriately) used in place of the word "stupid"
you do the math..
