I must also agree on this. I always give new people the benefit of the doubt, keep myself open to new contacts, look for ways to expand my RP network. If my RP style does not mesh with someone else's, I don't outright ignore them - I just limit IC contact to what is absolutely pertinent.
Another side to this is a bad (in-character) first impression. I can point back to that smear article that Eva paid Spahro to write. Crofte has run across many people who on first impression will go right to that and deride her for it. Before I can even get to know these people, Crofte is already snubbing them for their rudeness.
