Shadow Lights Entertainment would like to appologise about the lack of admin presence we are a family owned business and a major family issue came up so our presence hasnt been around. But things have calmed down some so you can expect to see updates and more presence around again.
Also starting Sunday cron jobs have been put in place to auto do the Double events for Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday.
A bug in Kingdoms was found and put to our attention and we actually like this bug so its no longer a bug it is "Working as Intended" if you look at the purchase page for Kings Sword you will see the bug that has become part of the game for the good and a bonus for having the Kings Sword.
Also users noted that the $50 minimum for PayPal is still too high we have lowered it to $25 but a recorded phone call will be made before we take the purchase to ensure 0 charge backs.

October 31st 2008
Due to my Internet being out all evening I was unable to logon and upload the event scripts or hold the event myself. Because of this I will be holding the event on both Saturday and Sunday 9:00PM Central Time (Thats 10:00PM Server time which is set to Eastern Time) also I have enabled Shard Dust drops remember the more users online the better the drop rate (HINT: Log your alts and click them every so often to keep the online count higher)
Also some users have complained the the $100 minimum for PayPal transactions is too high, we have changed it to $50.
Also beasts will not get the 100x buff tomorrow as planned however all othe rupdates are still going to happen we are still trying to work out the negative damage issue with the new beast powers until this is fixed we can not do this update as beasts will be un killable.
Alex 'Sevi0n' Kearney
Due to network problems the Holloween Day Beast Spawn Event has been delayed. Be prepared to expect it BOTH Saturday and Sunday at the same scedualed time!

Weve done some cleaning up of our staff and demoted several MODs that we just dont see around anymore or we feel really dont belong as a mod. So we may be looking for users to step up and fill these positions as the need comes. PMing asking to become a mod will not help you become one. Help out other users, activly use the support forums, and report anything up that you feel needs the attention of a MOD or GM and you yourself may get the power to handle these issues better as a MOD yourself.
Melenial spawn rates have been fixed there should no longer be a over abundance of these beasts anymore.
Starting on the 1st the new major update to Immoral Attack beasts will become active. This patch includes stronger beasts, a new beast similar to the old eiggem but with no kill limit and HP based on how many users were online at the time of the spawn. The new beast will only spawn on Plane of Creation. Along with the new beasts will come the new armor/weapon set "of The Beast Slayer".
Also starting next month and every month following expect to see a major update with the new month changing the chapter of Immoral Attack, next months new chapter will be called Immoral Attack: The Uprising of The Beasts
A mass email containing this information and more information about the Halloween Beast event has been sent out.
Alex 'Sevion' Kearney
October 24th 2008
Be prepared for a Beast Spawn Event on Holloween Day, a mass email with the time of the spawning will be sent the same day. This is a no limit special event beast so enjoy it when it comes.

October 21st 2008
Due to downtime that the game had this morning Double Level and Shard Dust will drop until tomorrow morning.
We noticed that when we reduced the pricing of items we did not reduce the price of the 1 Year Subscription it has been dropped to $50.
Also, we have decided to accept PayPal directly (Without going through Share-It) on orders of $100 or more however there is a process to use PayPal please review the purchase page for details.

October 9th 2008
Fixed a issue in waging war that if you were to tie your opponunt for a win you would gain negative land. This issue has been addressed and a simple hot fix has been made for the time being since kingdoms are undergoing a complete revamp.
Adjusted spawn rates yet again.
Share-It is now up and running for those who were unable to use Google Checkout. The 30 Day Subsbscription option is still not available we have emailed Share-It about this and hope to have it up and running shortly. If you can use Google Checkout we encourage you to use that instead of Share-It as its faster and easier.

Alex 'Sevion' Kearney
October 5th 2008
Fixed a major bug in leveling when regaurding users who did not have the 250% Experience boost thanks to MTX for pointing this issue out.

Alex 'Sevion' Kearney
October 4th 2008
Shard Dust will drop off all monsters at a random rate for the next 24 hours only this is your one chance to stock up on Dust and get that upgrade you've always wanted. Just a reminder the Dust Keeper now has EVERY item (Does not include Cash Credits or Subscription) that can be purchased for cash for sale for Shard Dust.
Fixed a error with the Dust Keeper that would give the user a Kings Crown instead of Kings Shield when purchasing the shield.
Users that have been reborn should now be able to travel freely between all planes (Except reentering Dullahan as this is a new player zone) however because your character is exausted from the rebirth he/she is still unable to use the beast teleportation until he/she reaches the zones required level.
Cash Credits are now worth more when spending Cash Credits this change has been made to help boost the economy in Immoral Attack and to give fair credits for the trade as in comparison when selling them to another user
We have re added the Share-It payment system for those who are unable to use Google Checkout due to Google Checkout not taking debit cards and some Credit Cards you will notice the prices are slightly higher for using Share-It that is only because of thier outragouse fees they charge to process orders. Share-It should approve the merchant account within 2 business days the buttons are already up thier just waiting for Share-It to approve the merchant account.
New NPC Chicken, for your Power Shard he will give you a Golden Kernel that does the exact same thing as your Power Shard does so its a even trade. Give the Chicken your Shard Kicker and he will lay a Golden Egg atop your Staff of Wonders doubling the chance of getting a Cash Credit drop with your Staff of Wonders.
The Leveling Gnome now displays in your inventory.

Beasts now say what plane they spawned on so users dont have to hunt all 3 planes to find it.
Alex 'Sevion' Kearney
September 25th, 2008
Beast bugs should now be a thing of the past, instead of just patching up the newest bug found in beast spawning the beast spawning code got torn up and rescripted. Things to know about the new spawning system. Beasts still spawn like before from clicking nothing new there nothing changed on that at all. What is new beasts spawn on a random plane Plane Of Creation, Plane Of Despair, or Plane Of Heroes. Beasts still dont spawn in Dullahan. the beast eiggem was taken out of the game for now it may come back as a Dullahan only beast later on but for now its gone.
Alex 'Sevion' Kearney
September 24th, 2008
A issue was found that if a Beast was spawned on a plane entrance the beast would occasionally spawn in Dullahan instead of the entrance. Beasts should now no longer spawn on plane entrances or in Dullahan.
Starting next month the Eclyptic Beast of Ages are in full effect! What does that mean? The user with the most kills will be the winner of a copy of Call of Duty 4:Modern Warfare! So sharpen your swords and prepare for slaying.
Alex 'Sevion' Kearney
September 21st, 2008
Fixed a issue were beasts spawned by players in Dullahan would cause the beast to spawn but not apear for users to attack.
Fixed a issue that would allow Meleneial and Dark Dragon of Chaos to still spawn on Dullahan
Fixed a bug were the skill Summoning was not actually affecting spawn rate.
Beasts will now spawn at thier normal rate (Not the increased rate that they have been spawning at in the past) with the Summoning skill increasing thier chance to spawn. The rate to spawn is now 1 in 4000-Summoning Skill=New 1 in ????
Check out the purchases page for a easy way to get your Legendary of the Ancient Kings gear without having to do the expensive time consuming quest. Limited time only.

There seems to be a increase in users using certain ways to level faster wether it be by macro or not that are getting banned for security test failures and then claiming that the way they did it is not in the rules and expects to be unbanned for thier cheating. The login message has been changed to address this issue and put it forth to everyone. Read the rules follow them dont try and speed up the game with a program or a "glitch, bug, exploit" whatever you want to call it. You get banned using any method outside of normal game play and you will stay banned.
The game may go down for 10 minutes sometime today while our host switches us over to a server thats 3x more powerful than the one we are currently on.
Fixed a Beast related bug where Beasts that were far to strong for new players to kill would spawn in Dullahan. Beasts will no longer spawn in Dullahan instead beasts that would spawn in Dullahan will now spawn on Plane of Creation.

September 13th, 2008
Were currently working in the new Google Checkout system to replace the PayPal system so to test to see if it got integrated right so that users just put the username they want to credit and we automatically know who to credit without any extra work from our users, were having a special offer 5 Cash Credits for only $1 yup you read right. Just put the username to credit in the form and make your purchase. You wont be charged right away you will be charged when you receive the item so if theres a delay in your order and you dont want to wait anymore you can cancel it before your charged basically its all leading down to users getting the purchases all in thier control the whole time and making it easier for them. Please only 1 purchase of this special offer per account.
Monster images are now fixed. We know the monsters and the names dont match up for all the zones but were working on getting monster images for those monsters.
Two new skills have been added Kingmanship and Summoning! Kingmanship has not been fully implamented so you can only raise the skill at the time to help you get a head start for when it comes into play. Summoning has been fully implamented the higher your skill the higher your chance at spawning a beast while attacking a monster.
Fixed a display issue regarding players in Dullahan and the Kingdom Management page.

The long awaited announcement is finally here.
After careful consideration and thought, in hopes to see IA continue, I have decided to hand the game back over to its creator, Sevion. I hope the transition will go smooth and you will all be pleased with Sevion. The transition should take place within a few days.
I'd like to thank everyone for their support, friendship and fun. Good Luck to you all.

We would like to apologize to anyone who was waiting around last night for the trivia night. A rather personal issue came up that required Mystic's attention. To compensate for the lost night we have added a tag drop day event and double level event to todays events as well as a subscription drop day event. Mystic will also be asking a few trivia questions through out today and tomorrow.
-IA Staff
Jan 25, 2008
Guilds have been added to IA. To access the guild area you must go to 5,1 in the Plane Of Creation and then click on the guild option under your action menu. The new items(Prismatic stone and Enchanted Timber) can be found in the Plane Of Heroes and Plane Of Despair with a drop rate of 1 in 4000.
Also users should notice they can now switch between regular chat and roleplay chat. Roleplay chat is to be used strictly by those who only want to roleplay. Violators will recieve a warning, mute, or jail time. Not necessarily in that order.
Adittionaly the special locations that were originally available on any plane are now exclusive to certain planes. All elite zone has been restricted to Plane Of Despair only while the increased skill rate zone (7,5) has been restricted to the Plane Of Heroes.
Lastly a new zone has been added to the game. Players under level 25,000 may enter Dullahan at 8,2 in the Plane Of Creation. This will also be the new starting zone for any starting character. Once a player reaches level 10,000 they may exit the zone. If a player should stay in the plane untill level 25,000 or higher they will be forced to move out before attacking anymore mobs.
With any update there is likely to be some errors are problems with the code despite the amount of testing done for it. IA Staff would like to remind you NOT to exploit any errors found in the code or else your characters may recieve jail time or be banned. Please report any errors/bugs on the forum in the bugs/error topic.
Lastly as promised... There will be a mini beast invasion that will be held around 6p.m. server time and you can expect to see the Immoral King there! IA Staff would also like to thank you for your continued support of the game. All of your contributions both from ideas and monetary have helped make IA what it is today!
-IA Staff
Jan 24, 2008
We will be closing the site down around 3 pm EST to code in new additions.
We will reopen approx. 6 pm EST.

We are sorry for any inconviences this may cause but look forward to welcoming you back with the updates and weekend events.
-IA Staff
Jan 18, 2008
Players should have received an email informing them about events coming up on the weekend of the 25th. If you did not receive the email please check your junk or bulk mail folder before coming to us.
To celebrate the Gamers Holiday IA will be releasing Guilds on the 25th followed by a mini beast invasion. But... we're not done yet. On the 26th we will be holding a trivia night followed by a subscription drop day event on the 27th. So although the holidays may have ended... we're saying "let the games begin"!
-IA Staff
Jan 16, 2008
Guilds are currently being tested on the test site. All staff members should review the staff forums for more details. Please do not ask to join the test site. We will contact you if we need more people and everyone can expect testing to be complete when all the issues and errors that are likely to arise are worked out. Any user found attempting to register or who has already registered for the test site with out permission will recieve jail and possible ban time on both sites. Any final questions, concerns, or ideas about guilds should be posted on the forums within the next week as it is likely to be added by then.
-IA Staff
Jan 12, 2008
We are aware that the forums are currently down. We are working on the issue and would like to apologize for any inconvience this may cause you. The forums will be back up asap.
-IA Staff
Jan 9, 2008
Guilds topic poll has been closed. Users may still leave comments on the topic. Anyone who posted a concern regarding the implimentation of guilds has recieved a private forum message from Mystic. If anyone was missed please message mystic via the forums. Users may expect guilds to be implimented as soon as Mystic has it coded. Please do not bother asking him how long it will take as he will most likely be busy coding it into the game and working around his new Class schedule at college.
On another note users who have questions/concerns about mods, rules... etc. should contact Trin from this point forward while users having questions/concerns about coding issues or banned security tests should contact Mystic through the forums or in game.

Happy New Year and Congratualations to the winners of the December referral contest. The results were as follows:
1st- Shardok(34)
2nd- Shadow Wraith(9)
3rd- Jafong28(9)
It was a very close battle between 2nd and 3rd but our logs show Shadow Wraith gaining his last referral at 11:46p.m. According to the rules of the contest in the event of a tie the user with the most overal referrals gets the prize.
Once again Congratualations to the winners. Please contact Mystic via forum messages or in game for your reward.
Also we would like to remind users to play the game the way it was meant to be. I.E. no refreshing pages multiple times in a row, using bots ...etc. Any attempts to do so will result in a ban and no we will not unban you. If the system bans you it did it for a good reason so please do not waste your time hunting Trin or Mystic down to get you unbanned.
Lastly as some of you already know we are hoping to add Guilds into the game. If you would like to have any input on the subject please do so on the forums. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and will be noted upon its release. There is still some debate about weather or not guilds should even be implimented. So please take the time and submit your vote on the forum. The pole will close on the 8th of January at 11:59p.m. EST(server time) where a simple majority will determine if Guilds will be implimented or not. Each user is allowed only one vote and we will be watching for multiple votes from the same IP address. Since it is such a sensitive subject for some people, anyone found voting multiple times will receive jail time at the minimum with a possible ban of all their characters!

All current moderators wishing to keep their position should message me via forums by no later than Wednesday at Midnight. At this point if we need additional Moderators we will let you know.

A wise man told me that "A fool and his money are soon parted." It appears the same holds true for some monsters in IA and the rumor is that some enjoy gathering in the Plane Of Heroes. I'm sure they are bound to spring up else where though.
When fighting the eiggem everyone has a chance to heal it for 1-10 hp. Additionally subscription users will now do 2 damage to the beast as opposed to 1.
-IA Staff

Fixed error in eboa beast that would replace enchanted and legendary pieces with regular insanity pieces.
Users who do not have a subscription will now notice that the location that appears in chat will change colors depending on the map they are in.

New beast added! It has 100hp and is spawned normally with out the aid of the Dark Stranger. Limit is 3 kills a month and 4 with subscription. Beast is compliments of Meggie. Talk to her or kill it in game to find out what it does. ;)
Also there is a new competition starting next month. Users will be able to compete with how many people they refer to IA using their link. Prizes will be for the top 3 players who bring the most referrals to the game for the month. Details
Lastly the error allowing users to attack beasts after they have capped has been fixed.
-IA Staff
Oct. 23, 2007
Perhaps this was not made clear previously BUT hot keys are not permitted to be used to aid your clicking in anyway! Leveling your character is a very simple process that requires you to click on two different links within the game. If this seems to difficult for you to handle then I suggestion you find another game to play. We will not tolerate users who use hot keys. Anyone found using them will have their character and IP address banned from the site. No passing GO either.

I sent a support ticket to the host about the recent downtime- The reply is as follows. I will monitor and keep you up-to-date as I can.
From the host:
We're seeing high packet loss in TX network and are currently working with DC NOC to get this resolved. Please accept our apologizes for the inconvenience.
One of our shared system was selected as a target for the massive dDoS attack. Primary IP address of the c05 shared / reseller system was null routed. At this time everything is back to normal except sites hosted on c05 - these sites are not available due to the null route which was put in place to bring rest of the network back online.
Packet loss is back. Sounds like another attack is coming in. We're checking this right now.
Another attack of greater magnitude has been detected, destination IP was null routed.
4:46 pm server time
Oct. 19, 2007
New forum feature added.
Added space in your forum profile for your main and alt names, if you choose to share them.
Oct. 14, 2007
Top List changed.
Users should also note that changing between planes has changed slightly so that you no longer get an empty space on your mob list when changing. Instead you will be attacking the equivalent to what you were last attacking in the other plane. Be carefully however because they will be stronger or weeker depending on where you move to.
Lastly I'm working on adding the 'glow' back as iwp put it.
Oct. 8, 2007
You can now buy a subscription for a year.
Added a clear chat command that notifies the online players of the chat being cleared, as well as a few other admin friendly commands.

Quick update for the users concerning a few new policies...
Previous Admin/Staff tried implimenting a game credit reward concerning cash credits. The original deal was that for every 10 cash credits someone bought their referer would receive 1 cash credit. Unfortunetly the way things are currently set up it has
become a very difficult thing to insure. It is because of this that we will not be offering this credit reward until a different system can be put into place. We apologize for any inconvience this may cause you.
Lastly all events for IA will not longer be announced with the exception of Beast Invasions and events held due to any inconvience from uncontrolable circumstances.
Any questions or comments concerning these changes in policies should be directed to Mystic!

A Double exp event will be held this Friday on October 5th, 2007 from 11a.m. to 11p.m. server time. For those of you who don't know the server time is in EST.

Rules and Punishments updated again.You can view updated rules by clicking HERE
We also have a new forum. Members will need to register and each member that was previously registered on the old forum, will receive 5CCs when they register on the new forum. This 5CC credit will only be applied to main accounts (not alts) and only to members who were registered on the old forum. More information about the credit can be found on the forum.

Rules and punishments page updated to include
Netiquette -netiquette should be used in chat at all times. Users found using an excessive amount of caps will be muted and jailed if done repeatedly.
*pokes Moe* Also known as "Moes Law".

Link added to the rules and punishment page at the bottom of the site.

I find it sad and pathetic that I must post an announcment concerning chat behavior. I've been getting increasing amounts of complaints concerning situations in chat so here's the verdict... All moderators ruling's are final. Rulings from moderators will only be overturned if the Administration finds that MODs are abusing their powers. My efforts need to be spent coding updates for the game rather than working out disputes between players. That means MODs do your job and players respect the MODs. The GMs will be doing random checking of chatlogs from time to time to ensure that MODs are not abusing the users. Any MOD found doing so can receive a minimum punishment of a 1-3day jail time. At the same time any users found being disrespectful towards any staff member or other players MAY also receive the same penalty. This does not mean you can not voice your opinions however, just do it respectfully.
If any of this seems at all confusing for you heres the bottom line. Respect the staff and the other players on the site. I don't have time to baby sit everyone because I'm sure you'd all rather have me spending time coding for updates than working out situations. This is the reasoning for this announcment. I appreciate all of you who are already doing these things properly and frown upon those of you who have caused me to waste my time today to make this announcement. I would've hoped that it was not needed.
Lastly I've fixed a few more bugs including an error concerning one of the MODs commands so if you're a MOD please check that out.
August 24, 2007
Undead Assassin from Hell's prize for defeating it now includes a chance at a Tag Day as well as all the previous 4 options.
August 22, 2007
Fixed a few more bugs.
Moderators should note that a new command has been added to their list for security purposes.
August 21, 2007
Added Subscription drop day event. Similar to the event we had yesterday!
Good news... for new sign ups. Now when you join you get 3 subscription days for free!
Then in other news... I(Mystic) have taken over LostOne's share of IA and am now co-owner. Run for your lives goobers -_-
Site rules have also been updated! I suggest everyone glance over them!
Fixed a few errors some users were getting. Still working on the others that have been reported. If you spot anymore please post them on the forums!
Lastly I'll be working on a lot of security issues when I get back up to college. Most of you shouldn't notice too much of a difference in game play experience however and unfortunetly you may see announcements slowing down significantly in the coming weeks. Stupid network at college blocks me from accessing certain areas of IA needed to update.
But that doesn't mean I'm not working on things. I'll keep you all posted from time to time of what I'm working on in chat but please don't pester me about it. Thank you. =)

Tag Drop Event day! Tag days will now drop at random while fighting mobs... have some fun goobers. :P
August 19, 2007
Beast Spawn Rates have changed and we may be tinker with them some more in the future as well.
Also added a link at the bottom of the site that will take you to a list of commands used in the game.
Fixed the error on the GOLG beast.
August 2, 2007
Fixed the bug users were getting that would cause some mobs to heal you rather than deal damage.
Tonight will be my last night online for awhile so please submit anymore errors you see asap! You may do so by posting them on the forums some place.
Also users should know that account sharing is strictly forbidden. Giving your password out or requesting someone elses password will not be tolerated. Any users caught doing so will be banned with out further question.
Lastly for those users who have already received a Tag day or two...
1. No posting auctions in your tag.
2. Do not attempt to impersonate any person from the staff using your tag. Players who do not abide by this rule will be assumed ignorant. ;)
Punishment can include a simple mute of the persons tag or anything up to a ban if staff sees it fit to do so.
New GM/Mod Commands
@tagmute playername --- mute players tag
@tagunmute playername --- unmute players tag
Tags now limited to no more than 20 characters long.
Players should also know that they MAY be muted if "whinning" and/or a consistent request to have players not kill "their" beasts occurs. Beasts were meant to be a free for all so good luck and try not to get stuck at the bottom of the pile.

EBoA Contest Running again
Click for details.
April 28, 2007
New for subscribers!
You will now only lose 25% exp instead of 50% exp when you lose a battle.
This update is for subscribers only.
April 15, 2007
Manticore is back! Coded in today - any problems let Trin or Mystic know.
Spawn rate has been increased by 12.5%.
We are now running on a new dedicated server and all seems to be going well.
April 1, 2007
Progress...
Everyone who posted to the forums and/or sent me PMs about their skills/levels have been adjusted. I have a tendency to mistype numbers, so if yours is not what you posted/sent, please let me know.
Purchases have all been credited, with the exception of a few and I am working it out with the buyer. If you think I skipped you or that you have been credited in correctly, please message me on the forum. Unfortunatly, EBoA contest was disrupted. I have no plans to add the Manticore back in until we are moved to a new server and are able to fully test it before implimenting it to the game, as it needs to be coded in again.
Our next task is to find a dedicated server, reliable, dependable and affordable. Not an easy task. I will be spending the next few days answering and updating any skills/level of users and searching for a dedicated server.
No other updates will be made until we are moved to a new server.
March 29, 2007
The server was hacked.
Temporary forums at http://immoralattack.freeforums.org
Based on honor system, I will try to credit levels and skills. See forum for info.

The server was hacked.
This is where things stand. I have list of users who purchased items. I will be working thru the list to get everyone their purchases.
Stats, skills, births, kills etc, gained since Feb. 15th, all gone. The host did not get in touch with me or send me a copy of their backup so, its either roll back to Feb. 15th or do a complete reset. I find a roll back much better than a reset.
New users will need to re-register. We lost about 35 new accts during this
I will try to get every credited soon. I woke up to the site being down and have been at this for a long time and need to sleep. I literally - have gotten off this chair twice today.
I will try to get the forum back up but in the mean time, you can send me emails at trin@immoral-attack.com
I will try to answer the mails as soon as I can but want to get everyones items credited back first.
I have a few email addys that I'll need help with but I've not double checked the user list to compare them yet.
I currently have the following people on the list to be creditted.
d0g
Tru
Sty
xcasterx
eclypse
Evo
HSK Reaper
I have 3 emails I'm not recognizing but again - I'm exhausted.
March 28, 2007
The server was hacked.
What happened: Our host was hacked. Our main files are fine - database, eh, not so fine. This again was nothing in our control.
What now: We are on a temporary server for a month. During that time we will be searching for a dedicated or semi-dedicated server. I'm tired of messing with and waiting for the middle man.
Your accounts: Again, I have failed to keep current back-ups. Last full backup I did was Feb. 15th. So, accounts are what they were Feb 15th. Feel free to yell at me. Hopefully when we go to another server(hoping to be dedicated), I wont have to worry about it.
If you purchased items since Feb 15th, it will all be creditted back to you. I have records of every purchase made and will begin getting them creditted back and should be done within 24 hours. I will post an announcement when I am finished creditting the accounts.
I will be busy trying to credit everyones accounts therefore wont be answering much mail until I am finished with that. I also have another website that needs to be moved and reset and credits made there. Please be patient.
LostOne will be working on getting the site files back up and running. Mods dont have a whole lot of info yet but can only tell u the same thing as I've said here.
I'm not thrilled about it either. I'm expecting it a lot of compaints and thats ok. I will read them but wont reply to them. I cannot prevent hackers from being idiots, unfortunately data loss of a month is half my fault.
The hackers totally destroyed the database. There was nothing left to it. When I logged in to check it, it was an empty database.
The server does nightly backups and I've requested a copy but since they've yet to respond to emails, phone calls and trouble tickets, I'm not expecting to get it from them. The server will backup again tonight at midnight, overwritting any good info left.
We are stuck with the Feb 15th date unless the host sends me a copy. You can mail me at trin@immoral-attack.com
Feb 15, 2007:
Crons are currently not running. Staff is working on it but it appears to be a server problem.
We are in contact with the server tech team to fix this
Feb 6, 2007:
New help site open - www.immoralhelp.info
Trin and LostOne
Feb 3, 2007:
Nothing new. Working on help site, better admin features and security, nothing anyone outside of admin will notice or see.
When we begin coding, purchase items will be the first thing that gets recoded.
Trin and LostOne
December 28, 2006:
Immoral Attack has had a change in ownership yet again. Gandalf didnt have the time to put in and Trin, not knowing what she was doing, was at a loss. Gandalf and Trin came to an agreement for Trin and LostOne to purchase Immoral Attack and Immoral State.
Trin and LostOne are now partners in both Immoral Attack and Immoral State. LostOne has begun learning the code for IA and will begin coding soon. Keep your suggestions coming and stay tuned...
Trin and LostOne
December 18, 2006:
Please post your suggestions for updates to the forum. I (Trin) dont know what you want so tell me.
www.immoral-attack.com/forum
Cron jobs updated. Please mail me at aitreni@immoral-state.com if they dont seem to be running.
September 11, 2006:
As you all know, Alex(Sevion) and myself Patrick(SirBinx) have brought you a few quality games that you have enjoyed over the past few years. Alex currently to my knowledge has left for the US Army and ownership of the game was exchanged to the user Gandalf!
With myself going into the US Navy in a short amount of time, I can't uphold my duties of the old Co-GM. So I wanted you all to know that I am stepping down as the Co-GM of the now named Immoral-Attack. I hope Gandalf and his crew enjoy and improve upon this game that started as a small side project of Alex and myself.
With this said *hands reigns over to Gandalf* You better take care of the game and the players or I'll come and find you and take you to my secret underground layer.

June 30, 2006:
Shadow Lights Entertainment would like to apologise for the 3 weeks of downtime we experienced. Our hosting company canceled our hosting due to a Terms of Service violation saying we were hosting a website with "adult content" and refused to reinstate the hosting. They couldnt have done it at a better time as the site owner "Sevion" was robed at gun point meaning no credit cards to pay for a new host. We are currently using a free webhost (Note the google ads on all pages) until Sevion receives new credit cards in the mail to purchase better hosting.
To make up for the downtime and the (2 day roll back?) Cash Credits will drop from now until we aquire new hosting.
Please note Cron Jobs (The back end of kingdoms for resetting attacks, peons setteling land, peons giving gold, etc) DO NOT work at the moment. We are working on resolving this issue as soon as possible.
June 7, 2006:
Cash Credits will stop droping tomorrow June 8th at midnight so today and tomorrow are your last chance at getting Cash Credits as a drop. Take this chance to get as many as possible while you can.
May 13, 2006:
In an attempt to help repopulate Trouble Attack we have decided to leave Cash Credit drops on for a unkown amount of time. Remember the more users online the better chance of Cash Credits droping so make sure to use your referral link as much as possible (Type /link in chat for your unique referral link)
May 12, 2006:
Cash Credits will drop all day today the drop rate is determined by how many users are online. Each time a Cash Credit drops the current rate will be shown in chat. Users found logging multiple accounts and idling them only to increase the drop rate will be jailed for the day (All accounts)
May 9, 2006:
Users may notice that our main server (www.shadowlightsentertainment.com) is currently down as its being transfered to a new data center. Durring this period of time our support system, email system, and forums will be down. Once the server is brought back online at the new data center a announcement will be made and a mass email sent out. For the time being if you need to contact Shadow Lights Entertainment please email support@troubleattck.com.
May 8, 2006:
Fixed error in Master Crafter that would cause the wrong item to be crafted.
Fixed a Insanity item drop issue that would downgrade enchanted insanity gear.
This Friday starting at 3PM (May 12, 2006) Cash Credits will drop, the drop rate will be determined by the number of unique players online (Multiple logins from the same IP wont help the drop rate) with 15 unique players on they will drop at the normal even rate 16+ unique users online and they will drop higher than the normal event drop rate.
Users may notice the user count has been cut in half. The reason for this is that all inactive accounts have been deleted our system was not deleting them automatically until today. Banned accounts ARE NOT considered inactive accounts and will never be deleted. Users will be emailed every day the last 10 days their account is active letting them know that if they do not log the account within 10 days the account will be deleted (Exact amount of days left is displayed in the email)
May 6, 2006:
Users can now reset and change their password once again, you may find these functions on the login page.
May 3, 2006:
Unforunantly there will not be a EBoA contest this month, contest will resume in June.
We urge users to actively use their referral link however we ask that you DO NOT spam your referral linkor abuse it in any way. Users who use their referral link receive credits for every new referral they have a chance to get a free day of subscribed status. Also if any user(s) that you referr purchase cash credits. Type /link to get your unique referral link.
April 26, 2006:
Starting this month and every month to come every purchase you make using share-it will enter you in a drawing at the end of the month to receive $20 Credit to use on any purchase(s) you may want on Trouble Attack. The reason this is for share-it only and not any Mail Orders is that users who pay via share-it have to pay more than what it would cost to do a Mail Order so to make up for that extra money spent to use the service we are giving away $20 game credit to one random person who used the service that month, each purchase gives you 1 entry.
Leveling Gnomes are here! Each time you kill a EBoA you have a small chance at getting your very own leveling gnome. Leveling gnomes will lvl you up one time (Just as if you lvled up yourself by playing) for every minute you are not online (Minimum of 5 minute logout required). If you do not wish to wait to free a gnome you may purchase one at the cost of $10

Corrected a bug in the hourl
