I have very little context for the situation at hand, but I do have some tips for BRP, which it looks like might be necessary.

The most important tip I have is to make sure your language is clear when communicating violence (or any action, really). For example, let's assume you're roleplaying as Red, and you're fighting with Blue...

Always go with "Red tried to grab and strangle Blue", as opposed to just saying that he does it. Or "Red made a motion to stab Blue's chest" instead of just assuming that contact is made. Always make sure that Blue's roleplayer has the choice of whether or not these things succeed, or if they can dodge.

The flipside to that coin is that Blue's roleplayer has to accept that damage about half of the time, maybe a little more or a little less if that seems logical. If you see that Blue hasn't been hurt by any of the last ten attacks, it's past the time where you should be making a complaint about Blue being OP. At the same time, if Blue always takes damage, you're going to want to check to see two things: 1) are you communicating an attempt instead of a certainty? and 2) is Blue's roleplayer treating their character fairly?

Hope this helps you understand how not to get in trouble when doing BRPs. I'm out.
