If your players are doing meta playing to get an advantage, the problem is the players.

You're trying to make a story for everyone to have fun, they're trying to "win" the story by ruining the fun of it.

Either they fix their behaviour, or they fuck off. Having to create measures and countermeasures against your friends because their oversized ego doesn't let others enjoy a game is a bit pathetic.

It's not always that simple. Sometimes metagaming can be subconscious, or just hard to avoid. It's not always "to get an advantage" in such plain terms, and kicking players off the table for doing this on occasion... well, you do you, as always, but I won't be surprised if you have difficulties keeping a table full when you DM.

I just like to fuck with my friends!
