The Chicken Nuggie
For me my biggest red flags is when discussing a scene with someone especially when it's impact or some kind of pain play the guy I'm talking to talks about it like he someone would a fight. Saying things like I'm going to beat the shit out of you. When referring to impact. It's the kind of thing I saw on GD a lot that kept me away from a lot of online play.
Another being any time a Dom or sub expects me to use honorifics when talking to them (there's a time and a place and first time talking in a online chat rooms or DM isn't it)
another is referring to me as slut, slave, whore or anything like that in your opening messages.

Green flags:
Metaconversational skills! Introductions and getting to know can be super stressful, presenting awareness for this process and being aware of how difficult communication is, being able to shift to a meta level and actively help building a forthcoming exchange is a huge thing.
A good grip on realities! Being able to go deep into fantasizing mode, while understanding what it is and relates to what we do in real life matters so much.
Focus! Especially in online interactions, if someone is focusing on the conversation (responding quickly and thoughtfully) is a huge plus. I do not expect this every time but when I set out to have a conversation with someone I put my focus on them and don't do ten other things at the same time.
Red flags:
Single-mindedness. Looking for just one very specific thing? Expecting conversation to go a particular way? Not even acknowledging anything other than what you have in your mind? Bye.
Impatience. Insisting on playing right away? Not taking no for an answer? Not with me.
Manipulation/misleading. A potential sub trying to sugarcoat their limits to make them seem more attractive? Bragging about or exaggerating experience? Not going to fly with me.
Attitude. Jumping into submissive or dominant demeanor without prior agreement? Taking yourself or the subject too seriously? Making assumptions and going with them? Eww.
