Recap episodes are normally a sign that there were production issues involved, like money troubles, creative differences, time issues, and so on.
In mainstream shows which have 50+ episodes per season, recap episodes are less of an issue.
Etotama, a 12 episode show which aired this year's Spring season, had a recap episode. For such short anime shows, this is very jarring.

Generally what I do when I come to a recap episode is to immediately stop watching, go do something else, come back in ~6 months, keep watching from the recap episode. That way I get to experience the recap episode in its full glory, as a way to refresh my memory on a series that I had partially forgotten about. If the recap episode is good, I can continue from where I left off without any difficulties, and if it is bad then the producers are lazy and only made a recap episode to save time/money.
If you don't do this, I really can't see how you can accurately judge a series because you are practically ignoring how good an entire episode is (and one which is has a very different format to the rest of the series), which is quite significant in shorter series.

Many on /a/ watch current shows that are airing right now to discuss it, and try to watch it befor reading the threads so as to not spoil the episode for themselves. Without seeing the episode, you won't know if it's a recap or not.

That piece of shit did NOT need a fucking recap. Do you remember the fucking start of every episode was basically a recap of the entire series up until then. I started counting the time taken for episodes to actually begin with something that wasn't a recap or the opening. I believe it peeked at around episode 9, where the actual episode hadn't started until about over 5 fucking minutes. The recap episode was completely unnecessary.
