How do roleplays work?

Everyone keeps on going like, "Oh they're all done different ways", but still...when I see a roleplay, I see that everyone knows exactly what's going to happen in what way. I don't. Ever since I went to the Sonic Fan Characters Wiki, I wanted to join a roleplay, but I can never find out how. Here's my first theory: So this one person creates a page for the roleplay and goes like "okay people so this is the prologue and you guys must create your own section in the page so your characters can continue on their story from the prologue. Have fun", and then people start their story on their sections. But my second theory is this: A roleplay is one huge story written by a bunch of users. The founder says; "Okay, so this is what this story is going to be about..." and then people start discussions on who's character's going to do what and then go like "okay we know who's character is doing what when so lets start writing".

Omg I'm so confused how exactly does it work? (and can you try to give me as much detail as possible?)

Thanks!
