Maybe in the Geek's Lounge, yes, but definitely not for Tech related threads. IMO such monosyllables when used in excess tend to dilute the usefulness of the thread in consideration. If you wholeheartedly agree with someone, there is always the "Add to XXX's reputation" link...

In the *NIX / any other tech help forum, it isn't supposed to be a conversation. It's IT help, and you don't want to clutter the forum with "yeah" and "i agree" with one word added on the end with information that the op didn't even want.

I disagree. I think that all threads, in all forums, are conversations. However, if the only thing you have to say is "yeah" or "I agree" then you should use the reputation system.

I've wondered for awhile now if it would be possible to display the Reputation comments in a mouseover tooltip on the little dot? Currently you have to leave the thread and go view that person's profile to see what the reason for the rep was.

You can click on the add to reputation button and it displays all the comments.

Yeah, but I don't really want to add rep - just see it - and then you have to click somewhere else to make the rep box go away without adding to rep. A hover tooltip just seemed like it would be a convenience. Certainly not something that I would put into a "pisses me off" category though.
