Has anyone been asked questions when entering the land border with a DTV visa?

Answer summary

When entering Thailand with a DTV visa, it's common to be asked questions by immigration officers. Expect inquiries about your accommodation, such as 'Where are you staying?' While the level of scrutiny can vary, officers have the discretion to ask any questions they deem necessary. Therefore, being prepared for any situation is advisable, and having proof of address can help facilitate the process.

Yes. Nothing wrong with being questioned as long as they don't pull you aside and make you fill out special forms and such or show documentation other than proof of address (that one is acceptable to me).

Just for those new to Thailand, immigration officers can ask any questions at their discretion, so expect anything and be prepared.

Err....no, your reading comprehension needs work. I am telling you that it doesn't matter how many times you've entered Thailand, questioning is always possible.

In fact, it's MORE likely if you have a history of travel to Thailand.

No, officers can ask questions regardless of whether you're new or coming to Thailand a lot.

you really didn't understand what I wrote, I said, for those new to Thailand, (comma) then as a separate statement I said IOs can ask any questions, which is exactly what you are saying. You need to work on that reading comprehension.
