Speed-reading through it or just assuming the text was in regards to something else isn’t a valid reason to ask for this rule to be revoked with regards to your situation. I’m sorry, but you are entirely at fault here; not the game.

Best you can do is carry on, and learn from this experience.
I don't blame the game, other than for having this system in the first place (I don't see the need for it, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't have read it properly). However, this mentality bugs me. Should people be punished so severely with no recourse if they simply didn't read something the proper way? I didn't make a mistake while doing heart surgery, I made a mistake when signing up for a duty in a videogame.
