If it was a paid account (regularly paid, not one-off) then you wouldn't have to sit through ads since your payment would probably be put towards hosting, which is the very purpose of ads.
I don't find it a necessarily bad idea, but the existence of a "premium" membership could cause people who aren't part of that feel inferior, or vice versa ("premium" members may feel superior) which could give the place a less friendly atmosphere.
A free system of watching a certain amount of ads to download a certain number of sheets is maybe better. But either way, I think what Dazz said about an automated script destroying the server would still be valid, payment/ads or not (correct me if I'm wrong, I don't exactly understand what he means).
