Meta-gaming
from zoey on 06/02/2015 12:03 AMMeta-gaming is a form of blending that occurs when a player utilizes information obtained Out of Character in an In Character situation. This occurs most frequently when a player reads something on a forum, in a character profile, or in a chat log and suddenly their character has that information. When the character had no plausible way of obtaining the information, meta-gaming is considered discourteous and poor form. There are situations where meta-gaming is reasonable, but it is always courteous to obtain consent from the involved players.
