Status: offline 		This is a smiley request for the Matrix forums admins. I hope one of our fearless leaders will see fit to honor this request in our time of dire need.

I think it would add some very badly needed means of expression to include a "hat's off" smiley (smiley tipping its hat) and a "good job" smiley (smiley with a thumbs up). Right now it seems the only smiley we have to denote a great accomplishment is the worship smiley. Sometimes it seems a little patronizing to use the worship smiley where a "good job" or "hat's off" smiley would be more appropriate.

It seems to me that we have a lot of contributors to these forums and the games they support who deserve a few more means of giving them a pat on the back for their efforts.

Thank you.

Sure just laugh in the face of a major crisis to the Matrix community!

EDIT: My request is in all seriousness though.

Probably a good thing, too. Then, I would have to make fun of myself for being so misunderstood.

I think they fit the bill perfectly for some of our modders and game artists out there. I visit the Civ Fanatics forums as well and think they have some great emoticons for giving a well deserved pat on the back. Just having the worship smiley kinda cramps the range of expression a bit, me thinks.

Example:
"A true patriot."
