How do you fuckers feel about Table chatter/kibitzing at your RPG table? can a player make suggestions when his character isn't present in the scene? is that cheating/metagaming? Can a player make suggestions that his character wouldn't know? Say you encounter a puzzle that you, as a player, figure out but you're playing a half-orc barbarian with an INT of 6. Can you suggest an answer and just have whoever's playing the wizard be the one who "figures it out"? Or can players only declare actions that they themselves thought up?

One of the only cases where metagaming can be permitted (in my opinion) if it's in an area where the character has high levels of expertise but the player has very little. like a ranger specializing in the high mountain peaks but the player only has knowledge of tropical cities. usually it takes very little to get them thinking the right way though and the metagaming is still limited.
