The argument between Royal God Call and Southern Lone Blade was a topic of contention that was greatly debated in the MMO-sphere.
As a gamer, it was basically impossible not to calculate the chance of dropping equipment upon death from a scientific point of view, and that required the game developers to reveal this particular setting they designed. Of course, they could not make such data public, which was why the system would use the word 'chance' to cover this. As a result, plenty of gamers believed that if something had a chance, then there must be ways to reduce said chance. The two contrasting methods that Royal God Call and Southern Lone Blade had raised were just that, with their respective logic behind either school of thought.
