How do you avoid powergaming in roleplay?: It's rather easy to avoid, as I shouldn't be in the position to force another player to, for example "Bleed out on the floor, after I stabbed him", since, that'd be powergaming, and I don't have the power to force another player to die, fall, trip, etc, that's up to them to do their own actions.
How does metagaming disrupt fair roleplay?: Metagaming, for the most part, hinders roleplay. My character, let's say his name is McRonald and I'm roleplaying with Sir-HugsAlot. I know that Sir-Hugsalot did something three hours ago, could be that he robbed a nearby stall of apples, but McRonald doesn't know that, as such, my character cannot do anything about the incident, and if I did, it'd be unfair for Sir-HugsAlot, since he did it for one reason or another, that could be important later on for whatever reason, as such I should not intertwine myself in his roleplay, unless I actually visibly saw it. There's a lot of situations where roleplay really becomes forced or annoying, because one party knows OOC that they did something wrong, and force it upon the player/character that did something, just do get some forced piece of roleplay out of it. That's my take, at least.
