    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: By being respectful to another players experience and the server. If I was forced to do something illogical it would break immersion and that's arguably the most important aspect of role play. I guess the appropriate short answer would to seek out powerless gaming. To seek out and carry out orders that may be frustrating but elevates another player's character and maybe in their next life the same will happen to me.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming breaks immersion, and it threatens to waste the free time spent working towards whatever the metagaming harmed. Metagaming is not only annoying to go up against but it is also frustratingly common. It is so common because it is unconscious for a person to want to use what they have to their advantage. If a king losing his realm could prevent months of work from being destroyed their shouldn't be a moment of hesitation to use outside knowledge. It's that desperation that makes someone metagame but also it makes the game worthwhile. The ideal answer to solve metagaming say that the game is just a game and to hold back from cheating, but if the game loses value other people will still cheat because it is easy. Either way there is no way to end metagaming meaning it is natural. It is naturally frustrating and makes the game less worthwhile.

Character Name: Bogif Poglum
Character Race: Goblin
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 21
Physical Description: 5'4 100 lbs Black hair, brown eyes, green skin, and rags for clothes. Lost my eye pit fighting.
Roleplay Scenario:

Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”

((How do you respond?))

 

Bogif smiles and says in a not so soothing voice "Stories cost extra." Before any protest, and ignoring any if there were, it continues "I have the carrots you wanted and that'll be two more of whatever you're paying me. Although I can trim the price in exchange for future assistance with your..." He looks up "suspenseful abilities." The smile turns into a grin stretching from his right cheek to the scar reaching for his left eye. It slowly loses the smile after some blabbering from the hag or maybe the rustle of cloth in the tent. "My apologies if that was forward or rude my name is Bogif Poglum and I work for you or the supplier. Depends on your definition of employer." He quickly brings back the smile an recovers "Anyway if you need my services write me an owl or spell or whatever you use." He leaves the carrots, takes the payment, lays some fugly charm and leaves the tent looking for his next job.
