I have to agree with some of the risks of cyber bullying with this. And like you, I don't know of a bullet proof method for mitigating that risk. Some possibilities that come to mind, maybe using a combination of two or more of these: - Require FB auth. Remove anonymity (to an extent) from the equation. - Launch with a canned, relatively small number of broad compliments. - Allow only community approved compliments. If new ones are added, block until they're approved. - Allow submissions only until the list (without revealing the recipient's name) has been approved by multiple community members. Then lock the list allowing only up votes on existing compliments. |

This is an instant dealbreaker for me nowadays. I refuse to have a Facebook account for a number of reasons and know a couple of other people that are the same.
However, requiring FB auth may not make a large impact on the number of users registering for the service and/or users like me may not actually be within the range of users who would be interested in the service.
(Personally, I think it's a really nice idea. A bit of positive feedback can go a long way on some rough days.)
I'm actually more curious about how the site could handle multiple people with the same names, or users who don't really think about it and just put in "John" for the name.
