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?

Gaming is supposed to be about 'fun'. if a 6 int Barbarian "figures out" a puzzle, maybe their character just leaned against a wall and pushed the right glyph.
The players shouldn't be limited in their thinking, but they should be able to come up with plausible reasons for discovery.
You're challenging the players with a problem, not the characters they play.
But that's just how I see it. Guess that's why I always play dumb characters (o wait..)
