Redditors have been recounting the countries that they'll never return to, as well as the reason why.

I really did not like the Bahamas. Beautiful place, but the vibe I got from the locals was very much "if it weren't for your tourist dollars we'd rather you weren't here at all." Everybody had their hand out for a tip. Everybody was working an angle. Everybody looked like they hated to have to deal with tourists.
Can't please everyone.
As a result, we've updated the map. Thankfully, the UK and Ireland don't get much of a mention.
The full breakdown of countries by reason (approximated) is as follows:
Attitude to Tourists: Albania, Malaysia, Mauritania, Solomon Islands, Thailand, The Bahamas, Tunisia, Vietnam
Beggars: Belize, Mexico
Boring: Finland, France, Luxembourg, Slovakia
Danger: Croatia, Honduras, Somalia, Venezuela
Dirty: Cuba, Russia, India, Indonesia, Philippines
Expensive: Denmark, Norway, Slovenia
Loud: Italy
Too much poverty: Haiti, Jamaica, Paraguay
Racism: United States
Rude: Czech Republic, Greece, Lebanon, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Turkey
Sexual Harassment: Egypt, Morocco, Swaziland
Sketchy: Cambodia
Toilets/Transport: China
Too cold/Boring: Canada
War: Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen
Weird: Japan, South Korea
