1)  I found QC by following a link from XKCD, which my college roommate told me about.

2)  XKCD, Wasted Talent, Applegeeks, and the occasional random other comics.

3)  Well, for the most part, I post here to discuss the comic, but there are other topics to participate in that I read and post to.

4)  The community here is good, they definitely have trolls on a short leash here, which is good. :-D

5)  I don't really know if he does, but considering how hard he works to put up these comics on a daily basis, I think it would be selfish to require that of him.

6)  I don't think I could use cool to describe QC.  Such would be an understatement.

miados:

1) How did you find out about Questionable Content? To be honest I do not recall how i found it but probably from another web comic

2) Do you read any other web comics and which ones? oh yes. misfile, yet another fantasy gamer comic, goblins, npc comic, daily quests

3) Why post on this forum?  Is the web comic the only reason? It is the main reason but I do it to kill time at times

4) What is the community like here? To new to really think about that

5) Do you feel like Jeph listens to us as fans? (*ahem* do you?) To new to really think about that since i started just before the station tried to take hanners on a date of sorts

6) Is Questionable Content cool? oh yes. i personally am not big on the music aspect but the characters make it a really enjoyable comic. i like hanners and marigold the most. probably because i relate to them the most just in different ways.

1) How did you find out about Questionable Content?
It was talked about in another webcomic forum that I frequent (Wapsi Square over at the old Blank Label Comics forums). It was roughly about the time that Cosette was introduced to the cast. I did an archive binge and have been hooked ever since.

2) Do you read any other web comics and which ones?
A LOT. Let's see:
* Agnus Day
* Atomic Laundry by Armando Valenzuela
* Candi Comics by Starline Hodge
* Dork Tower by John Kovalic
* The Dreamland Chronicles by Scott Christian Sava
* Evil Inc. by Brad Guigar
* Girl Genius by Phil & Kaja Foglio
* Girls With Slingshots by Danielle Corsetto
* Pibgorn by Brooke McEldowney
* PvPonline.com by Scott Kurtz
* Real Life Comics - The Online Comic by Greg Dean
* Sequential Art by Phillip M. Jackson
* Sheldon Comics by Dave Kellett
* DRIVE by Dave Kellett
* Starslip by Kris Straub
* Times Like This by Thomas Overbeck
* Wapsi Square by Paul Taylor
* The Whiteboard (courtesy of Doc's Paintball Shop)
* XKCD by Randall Munroe
3) Why post on this forum?  Is the web comic the only reason?
Pretty much just for the webcomic. My occasional forays into Discuss and such haven't gone well at times.

4) What is the community like here?
Friendly, generally. And we all get the vibe that Jeph is trying to get over in his strips.

5) Do you feel like Jeph listens to us as fans? (*ahem* do you?)
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Sometimes I think he would like nothing more than to shut down these forums, but then again I also think he realizes it's a necessary evil. And that if he did shut down the forums, he'd have to shut down his twitter feed too.

6) Is Questionable Content cool?
"Cool" is such a 1970's word. "Hip and happening" would be more appropriate. "Downright silly" fits at times.

Vurogj:
1) How did you find out about Questionable Content?
TVTropes. Specifically, the page about "Unsound effects", which I got to from Irregular Webcomic #1949. More specifically, SCORN!
2) Do you read any other web comics and which ones?
XKCD
Order of the Stick
Penny Arcade
Darths & Droids
A Softer World
Irregular Webcomic
Oglaf
Bug
The Trenches
Diesel Sweeties
Leftover Soup
Three Word Phrase
Crunchy Crunchy Biscuits
Girls With Slingshots
is my current "check constantly" list, I dip into others when people link them on Fb, or in mails, or whereever.
3) Why post on this forum?  Is the web comic the only reason?
When the urge to express myself overwhelms my usual sound policy of letting the grown-ups discuss things more intelligently than I can myself.
Yes, the webcomic is the only reason.
4) What is the community like here?
Remarkably un-internet like. In the very best possible way. This is, as a by product, somewhat intimidating, but that's my problem, not theirs.
5) Do you feel like Jeph listens to us as fans? (*ahem* do you?)
I *feel* like he possibly does, subconsiously, and I *feel* like it probably bugs him when he notices.
6) Is Questionable Content cool?
I think I'll go with no, but I would not consider myself in any way a reliable arbiter of "cool".

TinPenguin:
1) How did you find out about Questionable Content?
I can't recall, honestly. But in all probability it was via a link from another webcomic.

2) Do you read any other web comics and which ones?
Oglaf, SMBC (and anything Zach Weiner does), xkcd, Cyanide & Happiness, Scandinavia and the World, Devilbear, Ornery Boy, Dinosaur Comics, Ends 'n' Means.

3) Why post on this forum?  Is the web comic the only reason?
Therapy for post-archive-binge-depression. And it's interesting to see what other people think of the comic.
Also, like many forums, it's a nice place to meet and hang out with cool, like-minded people.

4) What is the community like here?
Very active and lively discussion, on matters both on-topic and off, and generally very welcoming. One think I really like about this community is that there are many "newbies" but very few "n00bs". Some of the most insightful and intelligent comments I've seen here have been first posts or from users with very few posts. That's rare in my online experience. Unlike some sites, post count is just a number here, and everyone's contribution is viewed equally.

5) Do you feel like Jeph listens to us as fans? (*ahem* do you?)
As he is the artist, I don't think he's under any obligation to listen to the fans in terms of what they want to happen or how they think the comic should be. But he is not detached from his fanbase, and does interact via twitter and tumblr, so he isn't deaf to their feedback and questions.

6) Is Questionable Content cool?
Yes.
