These are the basic rules you need to know to RP
1. The RP format is like this:
(Out Of Character, OOC)
Place
<Name> talking *actions* ~thinking~
2. DO NOT BE RELATED TO SONIC or any other main character
3. Everyone gets hit, don't block or dodge every hit
4. Everyone always misses, don't make your attacks unblockable or impossible to dodge
5. Don't take over the RP, if the author hasn't post anything about the story for a while don't start making a story up for the author unless they say its ok
6. Be careful what you do, in some RPs you can die if you mess up
7. Post your profile, most RPs need you to post a profile like so:
Name: MBpikamon
Class: Warrior
Weapon: Sword
Keep in mind that not all RPs will have the same profile
8. Do not GodMod, thats means you are unhurtable, unhitable, you can't miss, you have no weak point, and you can't lose
9. Give the other people a chance to post, don't post three pages before the other person gets a chance to post
10. Don't have super strong characters, having more then one power is pushing it, three is godmoding
That's all I can think of at the moment, so here is a list of all the types of godmodders
Types of Godmodders:
The people who never miss a single shot no matter how hard it is [Aimbots]

The people who never are without a weapon and ammo [Spartans].
The people who have absurdly strong powers [Twinks].
The people who 'balance' their characters by having a massive but irrelevant weakness and massive powers, e.g. they can destroy worlds but their weakness is only in their ankle [Min/Maxers].

The people who do things in hindsight [McFlys].
