This is not really a pet peeve of mine, but I always wonder why I see (more frequently than you'd think) someone post a trade list but then put a disclaimer about something like, "I'm going on vacation for the next week and can't respond until I get back." Why not just wait to post?

I usually respond to emails. However, once in awhile, one gets by me. I see it at work while I'm really busy and I want to check something at home before I respond and then I forget. I've been glad when the person gently reminds me about responding instead of writing me off as rude person who doesn't deserve to be communicated with.
It happens to the best of us, if you trade long enough and/or often enough. I can't imagine just not responding to a trade email as a rule - you're right, that's rude. But, we are all human and things can get past us as well.

I rarely trade anymore for the above reasons and more. (Although, my last few trades have gone very well.)
Things ain't what they used to be. On VF and in society in general. (Ha, I sound like the old person that I am. Err, I mean "vintage.")
