I want this MOD but looking at Helpful Answers and modifying silightly may give us powerful MOD than this Helpful Threads MOD (HT MOD).
As the author posted on Helpful answers MOD (HA Mod), if we put the code below, HA Mod becomes powerful version of HT Mod.

My question: Why didn't the author take his/her powerful HA MOD and modify it to make it HT Mod? Should I use HA Mod or HT Mod for long term support?

Only missing piece is the you have to have a hook to display is Forumdisplay. But, Modified HA MOD adds all these below and become HT MOD.
The ability to show a user's vote stats in threads
The ability to use image or text ratings.
The ability to offer yes/no or scaled 1-10 point ranking.
The ability to turn off negative ratings for a positive only system.
The ability to decide which forums are open for helpful answer ratings.
The ability to audit the system and identify top users and potential abusers.
The ability to ban specific members from using the system.
The ability to customize the AJAX message shown after a post is rated.
The ability to edit all text and messages through phrases.
The ability to show a page with the top helpful posts.
The ability to show rating stats on a user's profile.
Integration with the reputation system for ratings.
Integration with points systems (VbPlaza and Experience)
Template driven display that can easily be customized to your forum.

Code:

$show['helpfulanswer'] = false;
$show['rate_helpfulanswer'] = false;
}Where X and Y are forum IDs to show ratings for only in the first thread.
