This is a good start, but I'm not sure if it really gets at what "sperging" is. Scenario 3 is totally sperging, no doubt, as is Scenario 1 for the most part. Scenario 2, I think while it's sort of a spergy question, it's a reasonable one. Sometimes little things can lead to new insights we haven't seen or noticed before.
To me, I've always considered "sperging" to be when people write long winded essays about Chris, particularly e-psychology sort of stuff. Like, someone might notice Chris mispronounces something and rewrites an entire page about how this mispronunciation somehow shows that Chris is actually a sleeper agent for the CIA or something crazy like that. Or another thing I've see is people spazzing out that Chris mentions an anime in passing and they assume he's a big fan of it to and they start to report the entire plot summary of the anime in question.
I think this is definitely a policy we need, as probably a common complaint about the CWCki is that there's too much "sperging", and I salute Anonymax for going to the trouble of writing it but I'm not sure if it really gets at what sperging actually is.--Champthom 08:11, 22 November 2011 (PST)
