Make "Props" mean something
Currently you can give another player "Props" and write something about them...but it does NOTHING. I suggest we make it a "currency" that you can trade for Blood Points or Iridescent Shards!
Make it so that SWFs can't use it on each other, this is standard practice in multiplayer games. Also remove the text box, if you let people use it to talk to each other, it will just be a way to send salty messages.
This is a way to incentivize not being a dick in game. A way to thank the killer for giving you hatch, a way to celebrate memeing or cute survivors and good teammates. Did you get a boop as Pig? Give props! Did the killer do a slow turn after you Blast Mined them? Give them props! If someone trades in the EGC and gives you an escape at the cost of their life, they deserver a reward! Each player not in your party can be Prop'd (so a solo could give one to each other player in the match
You could trade in, for example, 10 Props Points for 250,000 BP or 10 PP for 250 Iri Shards or something like that.
You won't have to incentivize sending props, players will do it because they want to encourage others to do it. Just look at Final Fantasy XIV, people always give Commendations! Have a small pop up to remind people to send Props on the end screen to ensure everyone knows it's there too.

An endorsement feature similar to OW could work but knowing this community... it may be hard to receive any just by playing normally unless you're lucky enough to get some players who don't take the game too seriously.
