Message: <blockquote data-quote="iserith" data-source="post: 8266895" data-attributes="member: 97077">It's a table rule and is discussed in passing in the D&D 5e DMG section on Table Rules ("Decide how you feel about a player sharing information that his or her character wouldn't know..."). But these are not the rules of the game, but rather the table rules of how the game is played which is set by individual groups.For some people, table rules form a sort of morality or identity ("Thou Shalt Not Metagame..."), particularly if they don't have much exposure to other groups who think differently, which is often why we see such a visceral response to other people who simply don't care about it or question the value of worrying about it.</blockquote>
