Most of this has to do with live poker - especially tournaments.
1. Players who take too much time over decisions. I know players who will take up to a minute to tank-fold preflop. Or limp then tank fold to a raise with not many big blinds behind. In most live tournaments the blind structures are very rapid in terms of the number of hands played an orbit. It's probably THE rudest thing anyone can do in live tournament poker.
2. Limped pots. As in there is an open limper UTG then 5 callers. If you are in late position there is almost no point in raising because you know just about all of those players will call any sort of raise hoping to donk out.
3. Players who complain about raising. This is tied to the point above - some players actually think its rude to raise so basically we are talking about players who have NFI about how the game is played.
4. Sunglasses - players wearing them. It does not make you look like a professional. In fact the exact opposite.
5. Online - players berating other players in the chat box, especially when they are at the wrong end of a bad beat. "OMG how could you shove there! You are the biggest *" etc (I could shove there because I'm chipped down and the blinds add a big bit to my stack, it was blind on blind and you can only call with a semi-decent hand and my 10 5 suited is still 37% or so against your AK off, so that's how much you will lose on average vs my hand etc)
Any others to add to the list above?
