    How do you avoid powergaming in roleplay?: By recognizing you are but a single character in a much larger narrative, you aren't "the chosen one" or some other stupid trope like that, you may be the owner of an inn, or a farmer, or even the leader of a nation, each of these has their role, the innkeeper feeds and houses weary travelers, the farmer provides that food, and the leader protects both of them from enemies, each is important, but has limits, the farmer and innkeeper can't just start wars, and if the leader mistreats the people they'll be overthrown, and one thing they all have in common, they're subject to the same rules of nature, if they jump they'll fall back to the ground, none can say "I've got this cool magic so only I can fly" and especially by recognizing that last point you will avoid power gaming.
    How does metagaming disrupt fair roleplay?: if only one person is metagaming and everyone else is keeping character, the metagamer will have access to information they have no right to know and can use this to give themselves an unfair advantage, if out of character everyone can see the whole battlefield, but in character only a small area is visible the metagamer can avoid enemies and traps with no way of knowing they're there in character when no one else has such an advantage and breaks both immersion and fairness

You’ve just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As you look around, your gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. You 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?))

 

In a frank slightly annoyed tone "Expecting me? What are ye a witch? My pa always told me to steer clear 'a magic, brings nothing but trouble" then leans down and sits on the cushion "but he's dead now so what do I care. Grew up in the mountains and woods, my father built a cabin by hand where he raised me, my ma died in childbirth, so I never new her, last winter was particularly harsh, tree came down on the cabin and took my pa with it. I'm looking to settle down in a place with a little nicer weather where I can build a new home, and I came to this town because it beats sleeping out in the wilderness again." leans in "I answered yer question now answer mine, who are you and why were you expectin' me"
