I never used adblock until recently when I saw an ad that was giving me an incessant pop up for a game. Basically, it would pop up a new tab every 10 seconds or so. Utterly ridiculous. I believe it was likely Gaia where I saw the ad as I was on my avatar dress up page when it suddenly popped up. Unfortunately, due to the fact I was lagging and hit refresh right as the ad popped up, I didn't get any screen caps to report it.
But since it was annoying the hell out of me, I got adblock just for the sake of that one ad.

I actually don't mind ads until they start being intrusive. I do feel bad because I know Gaia needs the revenue, but when ads start becoming intrusive to that degree, it's time to block them.
^ This pretty much right here, if the adds were static or only played when you clicked on them I'd not mind so much, but when you're on a page and the add covers up things, like links or text you're trying to read, makes annoy noises, keeps replaying, that's when it gets annoying.
Though I don't have add block, I use enough GC each month to be able to disable them, I do however have the adds viable on all of my mules.
