	Hello,
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Inception Sprint 7</strong> will be over <strong>today,</strong> <strong>15th August at around 20:00 GMT+3</strong> (Server Time).
</p>

<p>
	At that moment, Inception will be removed from website and you won't be able to leave Lorencia safe-zone and / or make new trades, etc., but the server will remain online for 7 more days (until <strong>22nd August around 19:00~23:59 GMT+3</strong> - so you can finish the transfer process).
</p>

<p>
	In order to transfer to Genesis you need to have at least 5 resets when it's over. If you have the requirements, you just have to write /transfer [NewName] [Genesis/Inception] from the Character you are transferring, where [NewName] = the name you want to have on Genesis and [Genesis/Inception] is your credits transfer option (if you choose Genesis, 100% of your Inception credits will be moved to Genesis, if you choose Inception, 20% of your current credits will remain on your Inception account for the next Inception Sprint and none will be transferred to Genesis).<br>
	<strong>Example1:</strong> <em>/transfer TestBK genesis -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestBK" as well as 100% of your credits to Genesis.</em><br>
	<strong>Example2:</strong> <em>/transfer TestDL inception -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestDL" and 20% of your current credits will remain on Inception account for the next Sprint.</em><br>
	<strong>Note:</strong> Minimum 4 characters, maximum 10 characters for name.<br>
	<strong>Note2:</strong> Only alphanumeric characters (A-Z,a-z,0-9), no special characters/symbols or so.<br>
	<strong>Note3:</strong> The new name you choose must not be taken already on Genesis by someone else.<br>
	<strong>Note4: </strong>The 2nd argument can only be genesis or inception (with any combination of upper/lower letters like GeNeSis, INCEPTION, etc.)
</p>

<p>
	<strong>What is transferred:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Equipment (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Inventory &amp; Extended Inventory (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Store (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Zen</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>The jewels and zen that you have in Jewel Wallet &amp; Zen Wallet</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Main Vault (0) content (including the zen)</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: The Main Vault (0) from Genesis will be <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>REPLACED</strong></span> with the one from Inception, so make sure to have your items moved from Main warehouse (0) to warehouse (1) or (2) on GENESIS <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>before transferring!</strong></span></em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Master Level will be transferred BUT it will also be reset after transfer.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: All of your character skills will be RESET after transfer, if you had any ML!</em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>100% of your Inception's credits (if you choose to transfer them) - else you will retain 20% of your credits from Inception for the next Inception Sprint (and none will be transferred to Genesis).</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What else <span style="color:#2ecc71">is included</span> with your character:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>HoFs</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Fruit Points</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Mercenary Squad Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What <span style="color:#e74c3c">is not included</span> in the transfer:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Secondary warehouses content (1-5)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Web Warehouse content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Market content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Old "stats" of your character (like PvM Rankings, CS stats, etc.)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Gens Status &amp; Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>Observations:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>You need to have at least one free slot on Genesis account (same account) in order to transfer - command will let you know.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>After the transfer is complete, your character &amp; account from Inception will be blocked and the credits/jewel &amp; zen wallets you still have will be set to 0 (the account will be unblocked on the next Inception Sprint).</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will be transferred with level 400 and the reset based on the transfer table.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will have 25 stats + the sum of points based on your new reset &amp; genesis points as unused points, that you can freely add.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<em><strong>Note:</strong> They aren't 100% accurate but once you do your first reset on Genesis they will be 100% accurate.</em>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	I will remind you once again the <strong>transfer table</strong> for the resets &amp; level:

		<i>There's also the<span> </span><strong>Dynamic Characters Balance</strong><span> </span>feature - which means after each stage/mini-stage we'll be applying some small tweaks to some characters to preserve the balance on each stage.

				<ul>
					<li style="color:#b3b3b3; font-size:14px; text-align:start">
						<em>So, if on 0rr exp is 100% for level 11-350, on 1+ resets you have like 30% on 0-50 levels, 80% 200-300, 120% 300-350, etc.</em>

		<ul>
			<li style="color:#b3b3b3; font-size:14px; text-align:start">
				<em>Which means exp is low, drops are low, content is progressive and everything is achieved by PLAYING, especially active play.</em>
				<ul>
					<li style="color:#b3b3b3; font-size:14px; text-align:start">

<ul>
	<li>
		<span style="color:#2ecc71"><strong>[UPDATED]</strong></span><em><span> </span>Transfer table:</em>

		<span style="color:#2ecc71"><strong>[UPDATED]</strong></span><em> The maximum 2 accounts per IP is now enforced at the server level instead of anti-hack level, which means you can now have 2 accounts per IP on each server (Inception, Genesis, &amp; Test Server) in the same time, instead of a global limit of maximum 2 for all 3 of them.</em>

<p>
	<strong><span style="color:#f1c40f;">Reminder related to how Inception operates now:</span></strong>
</p>

<p>
	<strong><em>Since 4 years ago, Inception is running under "Sprints". There are 1~2 Sprints per year, each Sprint lasting 4 months (120 days). At the end of the 4 months, characters are moved to Genesis. Players can choose to either continue the end-game on Genesis (if they want to experiment sockets, w4, quest system, more pvp, etc.) or join the next Sprint from 0 on Inception. </em></strong>
</p>

<p>
	<em><strong>Genesis </strong>is our permanent main server, and the location where characters are transferred from the Inception Sprints. A 300~360x resets server focused mostly on end-game content, a server that will remain online without any editions or wipes for as long as OldSquad will remain online.</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em>All the information about the Transfers can be found on the <strong>Official Info Topic</strong> for Inception (Gameplay section).</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em><strong>Schedule for 2025-2026:</strong></em>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em><strong>17 April 2026</strong> - Inception Sprint #7 release - ends on<span> </span><strong>15th August 2026.</strong></em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>15 August 2026</strong><span> </span>- Transfers start from Inception's Sprint #7 to Genesis.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>22 August 2026</strong><span> </span>- End of the transfers.</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<em>Based on the Sprint #7 performance, we will decide if we will continue to host Inception Sprints or not.</em>

	Hello,
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Inception Sprint 6</strong> will be over <strong>today,</strong> <strong>12th July at around 20:00 GMT+3</strong> (Server Time).
</p>

<p>
	At that moment, Inception will be removed from website and you won't be able to leave Lorencia safe-zone and / or make new trades, etc., but the server will remain online for 7 more days (until <strong>19th July around 19:00~23:59 GMT+3</strong> - so you can finish the transfer process).
</p>

<p>
	In order to transfer to Genesis you need to have at least 5 resets when it's over. If you have the requirements, you just have to write /transfer [NewName] [Genesis/Inception] from the Character you are transferring, where [NewName] = the name you want to have on Genesis and [Genesis/Inception] is your credits transfer option (if you choose Genesis, 100% of your Inception credits will be moved to Genesis, if you choose Inception, 20% of your current credits will remain on your Inception account for the next Inception Sprint and none will be transferred to Genesis).<br>
	<strong>Example1:</strong> <em>/transfer TestBK genesis -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestBK" as well as 100% of your credits to Genesis.</em><br>
	<strong>Example2:</strong> <em>/transfer TestDL inception -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestDL" and 20% of your current credits will remain on Inception account for the next Sprint.</em><br>
	<strong>Note:</strong> Minimum 4 characters, maximum 10 characters for name.<br>
	<strong>Note2:</strong> Only alphanumeric characters (A-Z,a-z,0-9), no special characters/symbols or so.<br>
	<strong>Note3:</strong> The new name you choose must not be taken already on Genesis by someone else.<br>
	<strong>Note4: </strong>The 2nd argument can only be genesis or inception (with any combination of upper/lower letters like GeNeSis, INCEPTION, etc.)
</p>

<p>
	<strong>What is transferred:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Equipment (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Inventory &amp; Extended Inventory (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Store (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Zen</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>The jewels and zen that you have in Jewel Wallet &amp; Zen Wallet</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Main Vault (0) content (including the zen)</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: The Main Vault (0) from Genesis will be <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>REPLACED</strong></span> with the one from Inception, so make sure to have your items moved from Main warehouse (0) to warehouse (1) or (2) on GENESIS <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>before transferring!</strong></span></em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Master Level will be transferred BUT it will also be reset after transfer.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: All of your character skills will be RESET after transfer, if you had any ML!</em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>100% of your Inception's credits (if you choose to transfer them) - else you will retain 20% of your credits from Inception for the next Inception Sprint (and none will be transferred to Genesis).</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What else <span style="color:#2ecc71">is included</span> with your character:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>HoFs</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Fruit Points</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Mercenary Squad Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What <span style="color:#e74c3c">is not included</span> in the transfer:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Secondary warehouses content (1-5)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Web Warehouse content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Market content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Old "stats" of your character (like PvM Rankings, CS stats, etc.)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Gens Status &amp; Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>Observations:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>You need to have at least one free slot on Genesis account (same account) in order to transfer - command will let you know.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>After the transfer is complete, your character &amp; account from Inception will be blocked and the credits/jewel &amp; zen wallets you still have will be set to 0 (the account will be unblocked on the next Inception Sprint).</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will be transferred with level 400 and the reset based on the transfer table.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will have 25 stats + the sum of points based on your new reset &amp; genesis points as unused points, that you can freely add.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<em><strong>Note:</strong> They aren't 100% accurate but once you do your first reset on Genesis they will be 100% accurate.</em>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	I will remind you once again the <strong>transfer table</strong> for the resets &amp; level:

<p>
	<strong><span style="color:#f1c40f;">Reminder related to how Inception operates now:</span></strong>
</p>

<p>
	<strong><em>Since 3 years ago, Inception is running under "Sprints". There are 2 Sprints per year, each Sprint lasting 4 months (120 days). At the end of the 4 months, characters are moved to Genesis. Players can choose to either continue the end-game on Genesis (if they want to experiment sockets, w4, quest system, more pvp, etc.) or join the next Sprint from 0 on Inception. </em></strong>
</p>

<p>
	<em><strong>Genesis </strong>is our permanent main server, and the location where characters are transferred from the Inception Sprints. A 300~360x resets server focused mostly on end-game content, a server that will remain online without any editions or wipes for as long as OldSquad will remain online.</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em>All the information about the Transfers can be found on the <strong>Official Info Topic</strong> for Inception (Gameplay section).</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em><strong>Schedule for 2024-2025:</strong></em>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em><strong>14 March 2025</strong> - Inception Sprint #6 release - ends on<span> </span><strong>12 July 2025.</strong></em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>12 July 2025</strong><span> </span>- Transfers start from Inception's Sprint #6 to Genesis.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>19 July 2025</strong><span> </span>- End of the transfers.</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<em>Based on the Sprint #5 and Sprint #6 performances, we will decide if we will continue to host Inception Sprints or not.</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em style="color: rgb( var(--theme-text_color) );">Cheers.</em>

	Hello,
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Inception Sprint 5</strong> will be over <strong>today,</strong> <strong>11th January at 19:00 GMT+2</strong> (Server Time).
</p>

<p>
	At that moment, Inception will be removed from website and you won't be able to leave Lorencia safe-zone and / or make new trades, etc., but the server will remain online for 7 more days (until <strong>18th January around 19:00~23:59 GMT+2</strong> - so you can finish the transfer process).
</p>

<p>
	In order to transfer to Genesis you need to have at least 5 resets when it's over. If you have the requirements, you just have to write /transfer [NewName] [Genesis/Inception] from the Character you are transferring, where [NewName] = the name you want to have on Genesis and [Genesis/Inception] is your credits transfer option (if you choose Genesis, 100% of your Inception credits will be moved to Genesis, if you choose Inception, 20% of your current credits will remain on your Inception account for the next Inception Sprint and none will be transferred to Genesis).<br>
	<strong>Example1:</strong> <em>/transfer TestBK genesis -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestBK" as well as 100% of your credits to Genesis.</em><br>
	<strong>Example2:</strong> <em>/transfer TestDL inception -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestDL" and 20% of your current credits will remain on Inception account for the next Sprint.</em><br>
	<strong>Note:</strong> Minimum 4 characters, maximum 10 characters for name.<br>
	<strong>Note2:</strong> Only alphanumeric characters (A-Z,a-z,0-9), no special characters/symbols or so.<br>
	<strong>Note3:</strong> The new name you choose must not be taken already on Genesis by someone else.<br>
	<strong>Note4: </strong>The 2nd argument can only be genesis or inception (with any combination of upper/lower letters like GeNeSis, INCEPTION, etc.)
</p>

<p>
	<strong>What is transferred:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Equipment (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Inventory &amp; Extended Inventory (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Store (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Zen</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>The jewels and zen that you have in Jewel Wallet &amp; Zen Wallet</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Main Vault (0) content (including the zen)</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: The Main Vault (0) from Genesis will be <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>REPLACED</strong></span> with the one from Inception, so make sure to have your items moved from Main warehouse (0) to warehouse (1) or (2) on GENESIS <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>before transferring!</strong></span></em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Master Level will be transferred BUT it will also be reset after transfer.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: All of your character skills will be RESET after transfer, if you had any ML!</em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>100% of your Inception's credits (if you choose to transfer them) - else you will retain 20% of your credits from Inception for the next Inception Sprint (and none will be transferred to Genesis).</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What else <span style="color:#2ecc71">is included</span> with your character:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>HoFs</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Fruit Points</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Mercenary Squad Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What <span style="color:#e74c3c">is not included</span> in the transfer:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Secondary warehouses content (1-5)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Web Warehouse content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Market content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Old "stats" of your character (like PvM Rankings, CS stats, etc.)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Gens Status &amp; Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>Observations:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>You need to have at least one free slot on Genesis account (same account) in order to transfer - command will let you know.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>After the transfer is complete, your character &amp; account from Inception will be blocked and the credits/jewel &amp; zen wallets you still have will be set to 0 (the account will be unblocked on the next Inception Sprint).</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will be transferred with level 400 and the reset based on the transfer table.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will have 25 stats + the sum of points based on your new reset &amp; genesis points as unused points, that you can freely add.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<em><strong>Note:</strong> They aren't 100% accurate but once you do your first reset on Genesis they will be 100% accurate.</em>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	I will remind you once again the <strong>transfer table</strong> for the resets &amp; level:
</p>

<blockquote class="ipsQuote" data-gramm="false" data-ipsquote="">

			<em>21-23 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>1 GR, 45 resets and level 400 Genesis + 3x PvP Artifacts &amp; 3x PvM Artifacts.</strong></em><br>
			<em>18-20 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>1 GR, 40 resets and level 400 Genesis + 2x PvP Artifacts &amp; 2x PvM Artifacts.</strong></em><br>
			<em>15-17 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>1 GR, 30 resets and level 400 Genesis + 1x PvP Artifact &amp; 1x PvM Artifact.</strong></em><br>
			<em>12-14 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>1 GR, 15 resets and level 400 Genesis.</strong></em><br>
			<em>Under 12 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>0 GR &amp; X4 the resets number on Genesis (11 resets Inception = 44 resets Genesis, etc.) and level 400.</strong></em>
		</p>

		<p style="text-align: center;">
			<em>Minimum resets (on Inception) that a character must have in order to be transferred to Genesis: <strong>5 resets.</strong></em>

	Hello,
</p>

<p>
	On <strong>10.09.2024 (Tuesday)</strong> at <strong>18:00 GMT+3</strong> (Server Time) we'll have a quick global maintenance on our systems.

</p>

<p>
	<span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>We're doing this maintenance mostly to update the AH to its newest version, since we heard some problems with some of you on this current version (hopefully they are fixed in this AH update).</strong></span>

<p>
	<strong><span style="color:#f1c40f;">Reminder related to how Inception operates now:</span></strong>
</p>

<p>
	<strong><em>Since 2 years ago, Inception is running under "Sprints". There are 2 Sprints per year, each Sprint lasting 4 months (120 days). At the end of the 4 months, characters are moved to Genesis. Players can choose to either continue the end-game on Genesis (if they want to experiment sockets, w4, quest system, more pvp, etc.) or join the next Sprint from 0 on Inception. </em></strong>
</p>

<p>
	<em><strong>Genesis </strong>is our permanent main server, and the location where characters are transferred from the Inception Sprints. A 300~360x resets server focused mostly on end-game content, a server that will remain online without any editions or wipes for as long as OldSquad will remain online.</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em>All the information about the Transfers can be found on the <strong>Official Info Topic</strong> for Inception (Gameplay section).</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em><strong>Schedule for 2024-2025:</strong></em>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em><strong>13 September 2024</strong><span> </span>- Inception Sprint #5 release - ends on<span> </span><strong>11 January 2025.</strong></em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>11 January 2025</strong><span> </span>- Transfers start from Inception's Sprint #5 to Genesis.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>18 January 2025</strong><span> </span>- End of the transfers.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>14 March 2025</strong> - Inception Sprint #6 release - ends on<span> </span><strong>12 July 2025.</strong></em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>12 July 2025</strong><span> </span>- Transfers start from Inception's Sprint #6 to Genesis.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>19 July 2025</strong><span> </span>- End of the transfers.</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<em>Based on the Sprint #5 and Sprint #6 performances, we will decide if we will continue to host Inception Sprints or not.</em>
</p>

			<li>
				<em>2.1 The amount of MUTE time will now be decided based on case-by-case scenario and/or gravity (and/or previous history/antecedents) at the sole discretion of the staff.</em>
			</li>
			<li>
				<em>2.2 Any decided MUTE time is final and can be different compared to similar situations. </em>
			</li>
			<li>
				<em>2.3 Contesting a MUTE decided by staff in order to create dramas (accusing of giving an either too big or too small MUTE time) can get the involved contestant(s) banned and even HWID+IP banned, without further explanations.</em>
			</li>
			<li>
				<em>2.4 The "provocation" part of the old rule is now removed. Instead, if the one who reported did also used bad language/insults towards the reported one (even if they were "smaller" or indirect), both the reported one and the one who reported will be MUTED.</em>
			</li>
			<li>
				<em>2.5 The deadline for reports is 24 hours from the moment the BL/Insults/Racism happened, reports that pass the deadline will not be taken into consideration.</em>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<em><strong>Rule 5 (Selling for Real Money):</strong></em>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>1. When reporting a seller for real money, no matter what it is involved in the initial offert (be it only an item, multiple items, or the account/character itself), the one that reported will receive the entire account that is banned for the real-money selling.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>2. There's now a deadline of 24 hours to report a seller for real money, from the moment the initial sell proof/offert is created that you are presenting to the staff (not counting any ulterior discussions/proofs needed, only the initial one).</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<em>2.1 If the deadline of 24 hours is passed, you will no longer receive anything for the report, but if you report it past the deadline, the person &amp; his accounts will still be banned.</em>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<em><strong>Rule 7 (Insistent Non-English Messages in /post or Gens Chat):</strong></em>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>For the players-made reports, the punishment is from 3 hours up to 24 hours, at the sole discretion of the staff.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>For the real-time staff catches in-game, the punishment is from 30 minutes up to 3 hours, at the sole discretion of the staff.</em>

	Hello,
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Inception Sprint 4</strong> will be over <strong>today,</strong> <strong>13th July at 19:00 GMT+3</strong> (Server Time).
</p>

<p>
	At that moment, Inception will be removed from website and you won't be able to leave Lorencia safe-zone and / or make new trades, etc., but the server will remain online for 7 more days (until <strong>20th July around 19:00~23:59 GMT+3</strong> - so you can finish the transfer process).
</p>

<p>
	In order to transfer to Genesis you need to have at least 5 resets when it's over. If you have the requirements, you just have to write /transfer [NewName] [Genesis/Inception] from the Character you are transferring, where [NewName] = the name you want to have on Genesis and [Genesis/Inception] is your credits transfer option (if you choose Genesis, 100% of your Inception credits will be moved to Genesis, if you choose Inception, 20% of your current credits will remain on your Inception account for the next Inception Sprint and none will be transferred to Genesis).<br>
	<strong>Example1:</strong> <em>/transfer TestBK genesis -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestBK" as well as 100% of your credits to Genesis.</em><br>
	<strong>Example2:</strong> <em>/transfer TestDL inception -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestDL" and 20% of your current credits will remain on Inception account for the next Sprint.</em><br>
	<strong>Note:</strong> Minimum 4 characters, maximum 10 characters for name.<br>
	<strong>Note2:</strong> Only alphanumeric characters (A-Z,a-z,0-9), no special characters/symbols or so.<br>
	<strong>Note3:</strong> The new name you choose must not be taken already on Genesis by someone else.<br>
	<strong>Note4: </strong>The 2nd argument can only be genesis or inception (with any combination of upper/lower letters like GeNeSis, INCEPTION, etc.)
</p>

<p>
	<strong>What is transferred:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Equipment (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Inventory &amp; Extended Inventory (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Store (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Zen</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>The jewels and zen that you have in Jewel Wallet &amp; Zen Wallet</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Main Vault (0) content (including the zen)</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: The Main Vault (0) from Genesis will be <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>REPLACED</strong></span> with the one from Inception, so make sure to have your items moved from Main warehouse (0) to warehouse (1) or (2) on GENESIS <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>before transferring!</strong></span></em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Master Level will be transferred BUT it will also be reset after transfer.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: All of your character skills will be RESET after transfer, if you had any ML!</em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>100% of your Inception's credits (if you choose to transfer them) - else you will retain 20% of your credits from Inception for the next Inception Sprint (and none will be transferred to Genesis).</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What else <span style="color:#2ecc71">is included</span> with your character:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>HoFs</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Fruit Points</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Mercenary Squad Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What <span style="color:#e74c3c">is not included</span> in the transfer:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Secondary warehouses content (1-5)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Web Warehouse content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Market content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Old "stats" of your character (like PvM Rankings, CS stats, etc.)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Gens Status &amp; Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>Observations:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>You need to have at least one free slot on Genesis account (same account) in order to transfer - command will let you know.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>After the transfer is complete, your character &amp; account from Inception will be blocked and the credits/jewel &amp; zen wallets you still have will be set to 0 (the account will be unblocked on the next Inception Sprint).</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will be transferred with level 400 and the reset based on the transfer table.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will have 25 stats + the sum of points based on your new reset &amp; genesis points as unused points, that you can freely add.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<em><strong>Note:</strong> They aren't 100% accurate but once you do your first reset on Genesis they will be 100% accurate.</em>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	I will remind you once again the <strong>transfer table</strong> for the resets &amp; level:
</p>

<blockquote class="ipsQuote" data-gramm="false" data-ipsquote="">
	<div class="ipsQuote_citation">

		</p>

		<p style="text-align: center;">
			<em>Minimum resets (on Inception) that a character must have in order to be transferred to Genesis: <strong>5 resets.</strong></em>

	Hello OldSquaders &amp; Guests,
</p>

<p>
	<em><strong>Inception - Sprint #4</strong> - will be released on <span style="color:#2ecc71"><strong>Friday, 15 March 2024 at 19:00 GMT+2</strong></span> (Mobs will spawn at 20:00 GMT+2).</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em>The same, classic OldSquad gameplay will be present, featuring a progressive system and stages across the resets.</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em>Outside of the Stage patches, there won't be any development on Inception.</em>
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Official Info Topic:</strong><em> </em><a href="https://oldsquad.ro/forum/topic/993-inception-official-information-everything-you-need-to-know/" ipsnoembed="true" rel="">https://oldsquad.ro/forum/topic/993-inception-official-information-everything-you-need-to-know/</a>
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Few notable changes:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Reduced the Jewel of Life drop rate from monsters.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Senior NPC (along with the zen reward) is now part of the 1st CS reward - Test of Humility.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<em><strong>Note: </strong>GM Boxes are still released only after 3rd CS.</em>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You can now sell in Market for up to 2000 credits/item.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Now Market sales in Credits have a 10% tax.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Now Gambles with Credits have a 10% tax.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Updated the transfer table:</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<em>24-25 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>1 GR, 49 resets and level 400 Genesis.</strong></em>
			</li>
			<li>
				<em>21-23 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>1 GR, 40 resets and level 400 Genesis.</strong></em>
			</li>
			<li>
				<em>18-20 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>1 GR, 25 resets and level 400 Genesis.</strong></em>
			</li>
			<li>
				<em>15-17 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>1 GR, 10 resets and level 400 Genesis.</strong></em>
			</li>
			<li>
				<em>Under 15 resets Inception -&gt; <strong>0 GR &amp; X3 the resets number on Genesis</strong> (14 resets Inception = 42 resets Genesis, etc.) and<strong> level 400.</strong></em>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Now the amount of credits transferred to Genesis (if it is the chosen option) is 100% of Credits (instead of 70%).</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Slightly nerfed the PvP power of EMG on 0-5 resets.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Command Fruits are now automatically changed into another Fruit type (STR/AGI/VIT/ENE) when placed into inventory.</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong><span style="color:#f1c40f;">Reminder related to how Inception operates now:</span></strong>
</p>

<p>
	<strong><em>Since 2 years ago, Inception is running under "Sprints". There are 2 Sprints per year, each Sprint lasting 4 months (120 days). At the end of the 4 months, characters are moved to Genesis. Players can choose to either continue the end-game on Genesis (if they want to experiment sockets, w4, quest system, more pvp, etc.) or join the next Sprint from 0 on Inception. </em></strong>
</p>

<p>
	<em><strong>Genesis </strong>is our permanent main server, and the location where characters are transferred from the Inception Sprints. A 300~360x resets server focused mostly on end-game content, a server that will remain online without any editions or wipes for as long as OldSquad will remain online.</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em>All the information about the Transfers can be found on the <strong>Official Info Topic</strong> for Inception (Gameplay section).</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em><strong>Schedule for 2024:</strong></em>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em><strong>15 March 2024</strong> - Inception Sprint #4 release - ends on<span> </span><strong>13 July 2024.</strong></em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>13 July 2024</strong><span> </span>- Transfers start from Inception's Sprint #4 to Genesis.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em><strong>20 July 2024</strong><span> </span>- End of the transfers.</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<em>Based on the Sprint #3 and Sprint #4 performances, we will decide if we will continue to host Inception Sprints or not.</em>
</p>

<p>
	<em style="color: rgb( var(--theme-text_color) );">Cheers.</em>

	Hello,
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Inception Sprint 3</strong> will be over on <strong>Sunday,</strong> <strong>11th February at 13:00 GMT+2</strong> (Server Time).
</p>

<p>
	At that moment, Inception will be removed from website and you won't be able to leave Lorencia safe-zone and / or make new trades, etc., but the server will remain online for 7 more days (until <strong>18th February 13:00 GMT+2</strong> - so you can finish the transfer process).
</p>

<p>
	<strong>After the transfers period is over (on 18th February), there will be a full maintenance on our systems with a downtime estimated of 15~60 minutes.</strong>
</p>

<p>
	In order to transfer to Genesis you need to have at least 5 resets when it's over. If you have the requirements, you just have to write /transfer [NewName] [Genesis/Inception] from the Character you are transferring, where [NewName] = the name you want to have on Genesis and [Genesis/Inception] is your credits transfer option (if you choose Genesis, 70% of your Inception credits will be moved to Genesis, if you choose Inception, 20% of your current credits will remain on your Inception account for the next Inception Sprint and none will be transferred to Genesis).<br>
	<strong>Example1:</strong> <em>/transfer TestBK genesis -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestBK" as well as 70% of your credits to Genesis.</em><br>
	<strong>Example2:</strong> <em>/transfer TestDL inception -&gt; Will transfer your character to Genesis with the new name as "TestDL" and 20% of your current credits will remain on Inception account for the next Sprint.</em><br>
	<strong>Note:</strong> Minimum 4 characters, maximum 10 characters for name.<br>
	<strong>Note2:</strong> Only alphanumeric characters (A-Z,a-z,0-9), no special characters/symbols or so.<br>
	<strong>Note3:</strong> The new name you choose must not be taken already on Genesis by someone else.<br>
	<strong>Note4: </strong>The 2nd argument can only be genesis or inception (with any combination of upper/lower letters like GeNeSis, INCEPTION, etc.)
</p>

<p>
	<strong>What is transferred:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Equipment (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Inventory &amp; Extended Inventory (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Store (with all content)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Zen</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>The jewels and zen that you have in Jewel Wallet &amp; Zen Wallet</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Main Vault (0) content (including the zen)</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: The Main Vault (0) from Genesis will be <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>REPLACED</strong></span> with the one from Inception, so make sure to have your items moved from Main warehouse (0) to warehouse (1) or (2) on GENESIS <span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>before transferring!</strong></span></em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Character's Master Level will be transferred BUT it will also be reset after transfer.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<span style="font-size:16px"><em><span style="color:#f1c40f"><strong>ATTENTION!!!</strong></span>: All of your character skills will be RESET after transfer, if you had any ML!</em></span>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>70% of your Inception's credits (if you choose to transfer them) - else you will retain 20% of your credits from Inception for the next Inception Sprint (and none will be transferred to Genesis).</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What else <span style="color:#2ecc71">is included</span> with your character:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>HoFs</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Fruit Points</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Mercenary Squad Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>What <span style="color:#e74c3c">is not included</span> in the transfer:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>Secondary warehouses content (1-5)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Web Warehouse content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Market content</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Old "stats" of your character (like PvM Rankings, CS stats, etc.)</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>Gens Status &amp; Stats</em>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	<strong>Observations:</strong>
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		<em>You need to have at least one free slot on Genesis account (same account) in order to transfer - command will let you know.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>After the transfer is complete, your character &amp; account from Inception will be blocked and the credits/jewel &amp; zen wallets you still have will be set to 0 (the account will be unblocked on the next Inception Sprint).</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will be transferred with level 400 and the reset based on the transfer table.</em>
	</li>
	<li>
		<em>You will have 25 stats + the sum of points based on your new reset &amp; genesis points as unused points, that you can freely add.</em>
		<ul>
			<li>
				<em><strong>Note:</strong> They aren't 100% accurate but once you do your first reset on Genesis they will be 100% accurate.</em>
			</li>
		</ul>
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	I will remind you once again the <strong>transfer table</strong> for the resets &amp; level:
</p>
