I only compliment people if they've done something impressive in some way. Rarely do I interact with strangers in any situation for that to occur. The limited situations like someone's appearance or clothing beings stylish or something just seems like it would come off creepy to say so I won't do that.
With people I know I tend to be pretty brutally honest so it's rare I compliment them, but when I do they know it means something.
