I thought of this one:
When you've read a manga online that you've really liked, do you buy it?
- Hell yeah ! (Good mangakas deserve to be rewarded for their work !)
- Hell no ! (why would I waste money on that ?)
- It depends (on my wallet, my mood, ...)
Or:
If you were a mangaka, what kind of story would you like to write?
- Shonen
- Shoujo
- Seinen
- Josei
- Hentai
- Yaoi / Yuri (or Shonen Ai / Shoujo Ai)

Do you think it is wrong to scanlate and distribute published material?
Yes
No
Also, this is not a question about the legality of scanlation but the ethics. Besides, it would be interesting to see what people say.

Did you change the kind of manga you read over the years?
Yes i got tired of shonen/shojo manga and went for seinen/josei.
I read a lot of seinen/josei but i still read shojo/shonen from time to time.
I'm going to read Shonen/Shojo forever, seinen/josei is too serious for me.
I don't really care about that, i just read what i like.

How about a variation of your poll question that is less affected by the type of users visiting this manga site to look for recent scanlations:
Do you think it is wrong to engage in scanlation for profit or is this just just an archaic moral stance that is no longer applicable to the current type of fans? This includes receiving payola from piracy-for-profit sites to provide scanlations to them.

If you found out the final romantic pairing of characters were ones you didn't like and wanted someone to go with somebody else, would you:
- Drop the manga (Noooo! Screw this crap! X should have ended with Y!!!)
- Continue reading it (It's the authors decision....unfortunately...! TT_TT'')
- Drop or continue whether the manga is worth it or not (This manga's awesome! But X should have chose Y...But it's so good! But-ARGHH)
- Drop the manga (Noooo! Screw this crap! X should have ended with Y!!!)

What genre do you mostly belongs to?
1. Shoujo
2. Shounen
3. Josei
4. Shounen Ai/Yaoi
5. Shoujo Ai/Yuri
6. I don't have a preference
7. None of the above (is there even another genre?)
Question can be rephrased better. But these choices should be good
