The difference here is, people are being told they need those 4m gil bracelets and 2.5m gil rings before they start running end game dungeons and are griefed when they get there if they don't have them.

I didn't care to upgrade my jewelery before I started AK and I did fine without it, but some people who aren't as confident in their abilities, or have never really done end game in MMOs before, may not know what to expect and end up thinking they NEED these items.
