We tend to move to the latest WOTC rule edition which means few of us are masters of the rules. A player who has really studied the rules and can help find a reference can be quite useful. So, no to the pejorative sense of rules lawyer and yes to the helpful lawyer. On that latter point, while I'm not afraid to make stuff up as I go, I find it simpler to stick with the rules where possible and the helpful lawyer can make that easier.</blockquote>
