FOR MYSELF as a DM I'm perfectly happy if a player brings up rules that don't seem to be getting used correctly. I don't GENERALLY houserule games much, and if I do I'll let people know up front. So, chances are 85% I just didn't remember the rule correctly, at my age and having played so many games I really can't keep all the details straight about fairly infrequent rules, and I'm not likely to look each one up, so if you say "oh, it should be like this" then my response will be "OK, lets do it that way, here's what happens..." and I'm happy. The other 15% of the time maybe I decided the situation didn't quite match up well with the rule or it just seemed like it wouldn't work well there, and then I'll be happy to explain that, and it doesn't bother me either. This might come up with any sort of rule that regulates 'DM' or 'World' stuff, I won't normally do it with PC stuff, not without stating myself that I'm making a ruling. I run mostly 4e too, so its usually considered more of a fine point of 4e DMing, maybe 5e games it won't need to be said quite as much, since 5e seems to leave a lot to the DM to figure out already.</p></blockquote><p></p>
