How do you avoid powergaming in roleplay?: You would have to stick with a/the story. Pretend as if though the game is actually real life. Do not underestimate/overestimate a players abilities. If you can't do a task then how do you expect another player to do that? If you can do a task than don't expect nobody else to be able to do so. And it prevents actually telling a good story. You see some unnatural things in stories sure...however, it isn't like a human that doesn't have access to special abilities can magically grow a tree. You avoid it by pretending u are in real life. I understand that is very vague but I don't understand how else to describe it. Stick to the story and try not to do something outside of it.

How does metagaming disrupt fair roleplay?: Metagaming is straying far from role-play. You are not really role-playing when you are metaplaying. There really isn't a story. For example, If a player finds out through text that someone is planning to betray another person through text or social media and the player acts on that then that wouldn't very fair. However, if a player finds out through another player in the game that someone is planning betrayal and acts on it, then that would be a fair game, because it is part of a/the story and it is from the game play (messengers)
