Adholes, an ad-industry specific social site, has been sending me marketing emails for quite a while. I have now unsubscribed via their unsubscribe process twice, both to no avail.

By my definition, that means they are spamming me, and as a result their reputation is now officially crap in my view.

If you’re going to be aggressive with email marketing, you must, I repeat MUST, have a reliable unsubscribe process to deter against exactly this type of thing.
