I'm sorry but I think this is an absolutely terrible idea. reminds me of the Black list of the '50's. As someone else pretty much said in commenting on this... one person's honey is another person's vinegar. And altho I commend Alex for asking people to be considerate in their comments, I think the majority of posters will be those who have an axe to grind. you know... you can really ruin people's reputations with this-- deserved or not.
And yes, people should absolutely be required to post their real names or its a cop-out. Tango L recently posted their rules and reasons for rules about negative reviews of teachers which has some wisdom to it. BTW I am an organizer and am as interested as anyone else in whether the teachers I am about to hire are good teachers and not just good dancers...but I won't touch this blog with a ten foot pole..... no matter how curious I might be about what is said because I don't want to be tainted by someone who might have a whole different criteria in judging teachers or who might have just had a "bad class day". If I want to know about perspective teachers it's easy enough to contact someone who has hosted them or been to class with them.
