Everyone here has been giving you advice about improving your fanfics, also it is stated clearly in the TOS of this BBS that spelling,punctuation, grammar, and sentence structure are a must in order to join this BBS. Same thing goes with every other Sonic board out there to date. Even my dear friends who run both Sonadow and Sonic-Anime.net will you tell you this when joining. Truthfully Sway is just being nice by not banning you as of yet because of this breech along with the fact that you stated you were 11 years of age, which also is against the rules. Since its states that you must be 13 to join this BBS, you should be in a ways greatful that you were allowed in and stayed this long without a ban.

Use Proper Grammar
You speak English? Show it! Posts can be totally illegible because of poor spelling and grammar. Something often seen is posts with no punctuation whatsoever. This makes the post nearly unreadable. Also, make sure it is correct punctuation. Using a sporadic comma does not make the post readable. If posting something long, it doesn't hurt to copy it into a word processor and run a spelling/grammar check. Remember to always read over what you wrote before posting it.
This especially applies to “1337 speak.” Everyone trying to make sense out of such stupid sentences will need twice as long as if you had written "2" as to and "you" as you; the spelling normal people use. You aren't allowed to write like that anywhere else, and public forums are no exception. Not only is it annoying and hard to read, but also makes you look like an idiot since (hopefully) you are the only one in the thread doing it.

As of now you are not even bothering to take into consideration the problem with your basic writing structure. You do show some promise,but you are really doing a half ass job when writing your stories. Either do it right or don't do it at all.
I have been writing Sonic fandom stories for a long time and know what it's like starting out with this genre or anything along the lines of writing. Right now I have over 214 reviews and 54 people have placed me as their favorite author for one of my fics over at fanfiction.net because I took the time out to learn from my mistakes and take the critisms when developing my stories even more over the years. I also took the time to carefully plain out each chapter careful with a lot of editing along the way. I have no secrets as to how I write, but I do write with MSWord and do tend to go over my stories again and again before posting them so that both I and the reader are satisfied with the final draft.
