What about knowledge of the rules? Players should understand the rules of the game. There should be progessive knowledge increase as players continue to play. You should not be wondering how power attack works six weeks into the game.

How about having a character sheet tha's clean and easy to read? Having all appropriate bonuses totalled up? Having variants precalculated for Power Attack or other commonly used modifiers?

What I wouldn't give for players who did this...

The flip side of the first point being the armchair DM who knows the rules better than you and gets miffed when you don't want to run your game their way.
