[QUOTE="Graybeard, post: 3100116, member: 21705"] Like many others hee, I think it depends on the people involved and the advice/situation. I have one player in my group who wishes to play her character the way she wants to and doesn't want advice. That doesn't stop one of the other players from interrupting her during her turn saying things like "you shouldn't do that. You should do this instead.". On the other hand, there are other players who want advice on maximizing their character. As a GM, I welcome advice from more experienced GMs on rules and certain situations that may happen in the game. As a player, I prefer to make and play my characters the way I feel like it. I will ask for advice from other players when I make the PC sometimes. I will tell them what type of PC I want to make including general class, basic personality, etc. and ask for advice on feats, skills, and future Prestige classes. [/QUOTE]
