What factors would tend to give you a bad impression of a community, either online or in person? (That's sort of two questions, but they're related)

Online: systemic irrationality. Systemic self-reinforcing irrationality. That's why I hang out here :P

In person, a mass lack of social skills make events unfun. Groups are much easier to get along with if they contain a reasonable mix of extroverts and introverts (read: at least two people who act like each).
