Please entirely ignore those silly Google Groups 'star'
ratings - the more you pay attention and comment on 
them, the more people* will 'use them against you'.

See this thread for an example.
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.java.programmer/browse_frm/thread/2be9e9db2daa3627/4df2e47c2ddccf5f

I recommend you read the entire thread, to get a feel
for what these 'stars' are, and how they are seen,
and by *whom* (the irony is that a lot more people 
become aware of a 'star' rating when it is commented 
on).

* Specifically - petty people with no lives, who lack the
courage to make a public comment on the group.

If 'Google stars' was the most harmful way for them to
express their 'force', I'd say - leave them to it - until they
leave their teens and can actually converse with others 
like adults.
