You could have just started using it yourself and upvoted anyone who copied you. Or tried to draw out specific participants in specific threads - "I think an endcap to this conversation from you would add a lot of value, if you could just summarize..."

I did try to do it myself, for example here, here, here and here. But nobody seems to have noticed or imitated me, or if they did, I didn't notice them.

Trying to practice this to a greater extent, without an established group norm, would have signaled things I prefer not to signal, I think.
