IAFL

== Information ==
PAGE IS BEING REDONE
IAFL/UFL was a server founded by Iron Commander as well as many notable ones such as Inca and Giray.
The Creation of IAFL is mythological as due to the messages being deleted in the Valentines Day Incident but an accepted theory within the community is IAFL was created after the main founders accounts were banned from OIA (Original Iron Assault Community) for unclear and unspecified reasons.
IAFL has gone through many ownership changes and as of the time of writing this IAFL is owned by DDR.
== A Brief History ==
IAFL was founded on February 18th 2022 as a server originally meant to be a safe haven for banned/exiled members from OIA and to also serve members who could not upload flags themselves and were banned from OIA and Oia's Flag Publishing Server (Now known as Vexiologica serving WOR and OIA as a whole due to their partnership).
IAFL was considered by many in the Iron Assault Community to be the final stop for being banned as toxicity ran rampant (which has died down) as of 2024. Originally IAFL sort of a Purgatory for banned members of OIA however in 2023 it quickly began to grow in size and soon the first golden age was born.
== IAFL's First Golden Age ==
IAFL's First Golden Age (2022-2023) was when IAFL was mostly active and semi dead, its often considered to be the Golden Age as many notable members would join throughout (See list of notable members) which would shape IAFL into what it is today the server at the time was owned by Iron Commander before switching to Giray and Inca.
== The Troubles (IA Fried Chicken Arc) ==
Trees would join the server Early 2022 along with Drip_War it is unclear when the two would become friends they were apart of IA Fried Chicken, a server that was considerably worse then IAFL's toxicity and both servers had a rivalry and were at each others throats.
Around May a plan was devised between Cirvice (Now known as Cirv), Drip_War and Trees and many others in a group chat called Iron Assault Exterminators to destroy IA Fried Chicken after the server owners would refuse to demote Yellobritian after he openly mocked the Christian Savior Jesus Christ.
On May 20th, the destruction commenced with caused the deletion of IA Fried Chicken as a whole and its unclear who got banned once the server was deleted by discord moderation.
Former members of IA Fried Chicken would go on to create URSG which is considered a successor to the departed IA Fried Chicken.
== Controversy with OIA ==
IAFL and OIA have always had a rocky relationship as OIA's staff (Specifically Imperium) have had direct conflicts with many of the server members such as Siege, Drip_War and Ryanwastaken. However these will be covered in separate articles themselves which will be found other the Drama section of the wiki.
OIA have sent staff members into IAFL to see what was up (and IAFL still does) and IAFL would send alt accounts to also secretly spy on OIA as a whole.
The OIA-IAFL Conflict apparently ended in 2023 after an account known as Shia Siege (Just dank on an alt) accidently made peace with the two servers after mocking siege publicly in their server.
== Sealondon Riots of 2023 ==
As IAFL began to enter its second Golden Age a large drama started between the User Sealondon and the user Panda.
Around September 16th-17th a spring of anti Panda movements broke out over the server after Sealondon was banned for posting a "Gore Video" which actually was blurred to where any gore was unrecognizable, This prompted riots by the self proclaimed Thugger PMC which rebelled against IAFL (Including a staff member at the time Synthesized know known as just Synth) called the banning unfair. Synth, JZCARZ and a few others would send a gif titled gore showing a drawing of red blood cells which Panda would ban them which caused even further chaos.
The Riots ended with server owner Inca starting a vote to remove panda's event manager position which he lost in a landslide however Inca did not go through with it prompting more outrage until it died down after Sealondon, Synth and others were unbanned ending the Thugger PMC rebellion.
== IAFL's Second Golden Age (December 2023-) ==
As Drama came and went, the owner Byzen23 would depart from his ownership position after overwhelming pressure from the community which DDR would be labeled a successor and assumed Leadership transforming IAFL into what it is today as of 2024 with political parties, active staff and a larger thriving community.
== Trivia ==
Thugger PMC was based on Wagner PMC, a paramilitary group operating under the Russian Government.
