Endorsements (A effective way to REDUCE toxicity)
Endorsements, that's basically what I want for DbD! I seen actual evidence of it reducing 20 to 30% of toxicity from a game called "Overwatch" and I noticed that people are much more nicer ever since the endorsement update for Overwatch. Now, DbD has a great community but there are people who'll do anything to ruin your day! So here's my list of everything that should be in DbD's endorsement update if they ever decide to have one!
Endorsement level:
1 level => level 2: 25 Endorsements to rank up
2 level => level 3: 50 Endorsements to rank up
3 level => level 4: 100 Endorsements to rank up
4 level => level 5: 200 Endorsements to rank up
Example: To rank up to level 2, you'll need 25 endorsements from other adventurers from the fog! SWF cannot endorse each other, people who aren't in a group with you can endorse you including the killer!
Endorsement Types:
Good Sportsmanship: This player had great manners in their win or loss!
Example: The killer got destroyed by the survivors but was nice about the loss!
"GG, that was really fun even through I didn't get a sacrifice lol!"
Good Survivor/Killer: This teammate was helpful for the team and has done a lot to support us!
Example: This survivor saved a lot of people from the hook and did a lot of generators!
"Dude, you came in clutch with the hook saves! Your such a great teammate lol!"
Leader: (Killers can't endorse survivors with leader and vice versa) This teammate helped out by calling out objectives, killer's location, and etc!
"Thank you for letting me know where the killer was at!"
Endorsements Rewards:
Reaching level 2: 250 Iridescent Shards and 500 XP
Reaching level 3: 500 Iridescent Shards and 1000 XP
Reaching level 4: 750 Iridescent Shards and 1500 XP
Reaching level 5: 1000 Iridescent Shards and 2000 XP
Comms:
Every survivor will now have the option to join team chat and help communicate with the survivor team!
Endorsements reset back to level 1 after every season so you can keep earning rewards!

Toxicity is a pillar of that game.
This game lives from abuse and shaming for the most part. And memes, alternatively.
Doubt it's gonna happen.
