In Reality-Land, where Derubael lives, people would now charge 10k plat for the bone chip, and plat sellers would now sell 10k plat for $1 (having absolutely NO EFFECT on the illegal activities the GMs are seeking to eliminate.)

This put a smile on my face and made me snicker on a day where smiles have been hard to find

This question has been answered many times in the past. No one is calling you an idiot, though if you are interested in finding your answers there was a massive RMT ban wave back in March, with a news an announcement post to go along with it, that should have some answers. There's a bunch of reasons why we don't allow it (and why every MMORPG ever has made the buying and trading of in-game items for real world currency against the rules - some just enforce it more than others).
As an aside, I'm still not sure what this petition you are referring to is. There was never, to my knowledge, any kind of petition or poll. This was something we decided privately in a GM meeting the night the ruling came down.
