I don't really see them anymore. I have this habit of adblocking every ad I see.

Ummm if there was an option for rarely i would pick it. Really I only click on them if its on a site I know. Usually its a promotion they are running or a site like them have running. Like free tickets to a certain show or something.

Once I went on a trip and saw a girl wearing an awesome Marvel hoodie, and when I got home, the first site I went to had Marvel ad banner, so I clicked on it. Lo and behold, it took me to a site that sells that exact hoodie!

Sometimes I accidently click on one. No need to block them though, they really dont annoy me.

oh ya, i hate it when a page isnt finished loading (especially on my iphone) and u go to click on something, but the page finishes loading, causing what u were about to click on to move and u end up clicking a banner or spam site instead.

You can control that if you have firefox. I don't know about the other browsers. See Here

Only if it's for something I'm genuinely interested in (<.1% of the time) on a site I don't mind generating revenue for or it's a site I would like to see get more ad revenue. Very, very rare

Likewise.

I may have clicked on a total of 10 ads in the 67,000+ posts and 7 years I have been here.

However on WHT I've clicked on several ads because of those damn teasers 'powerful dual core servers, 2GB RAM, only ..." they get me every time.
