Title: A tip for new players on Metagaming and Godmodding
Post by: Deet on 27-06-2009
If you have already read the rules, you will know that Metagaming and Godly Roleplay are not allowed. Here are some better examples of Metagaming and Godly Roleplay. Below I will display 2 examples of each.

Metagaming:
1. [OOC] John: I'm planning a raid on the military base.
 What would be metagaming here is if you took that information and ran to the military base to stop him.
2. In console: *** killed *** with ****
  What would be metagaming here is if you took that information found in the console and said that you knew who killed who with what, without even being there.

Godmodding (Godly Roleplay):
1. **John dodges all your bullets, and takes your gun away.
     What would be godmodding here is you are trying to take complete control over the situation, and you are making it impossible for the other person to do ANYTHING.
2. ** Frank has armor on that makes me invincible.
      What would be godmodding here is that you are making it so the other player cannot do anything in any way, shape, or form to kill you, (If you were in a fight, I advise you not to run up and kill someone) because you are implying /mes (In that kind of fight) cannot hurt you.

If you have any questions on WHY you shouldn't be able to do any of that, please reply. But really, if you don't see how any of the above examples are not allowed, you should probably work on your roleplay.
Thank you for your time, Deet.
