Right, it means nothing. But as I was saying...being able to add friends is just a tool within a forum that creates an easy reference point for you to find the ones you are familiar with.
Example, if I'm new here, but familiar with only 2 people.....let's say I want to find a post of thiers that I have not subscribed to...or see what they have wrote about, having them on my friends list makes it easy for me to find them and then go to "find all posts/threads" by this member..instead of having to find a post by them on the board before being able to search the rest of thier posts. Keith is right, it doesn't change the way in which you will use the forum, it's really just a tool for you to make navigating around here easier.
