this is my take on it (and its kind of a compilation of whats already been said):
it depends.
are you looking for sex or a relationship? if you're looking for sex, more partners the better as experience can make a difference. not always, but it usually does. if you're looking for a relationship, a lot of partners will usually indicate the fact that this person isn't looking to stick around. if you're looking for a relationship, you should damn well better figure out what they're looking for (well, you should in both cases, but in this one it is more important for you).
are you worried about diseases/pregnancy? hopefully someone with a high sex count does their best to keep safe. if they don't, i'd bail, unless you're really interested in a relationship and either way i'd do my best to keep myself safe. statistically speaking, the more partners someone has the higher the risk is of them having an std. period. can't really get around that.
i've only had sex with one other person (whom i'm still with) and she's more experienced than i am. i don't have a problem either way to an extent. i'd definitely be worried about someone who has a huge partner count because and only because of the std factor. test results would clear that up and i'd be ok to get it on.
