I'll bite. First of all, everything is political. The word "political" is extremely elastic. Asking this question is as meaningless as any textbook guideline of what constitutes a political act, but if you insist on being pedantic and going strictly (and annoyingly) by the book, then let's take a look at the book.
Therefore in order for something to be political, all it needs is to involve politics. So back to the book we turn.
So the primary usage concerns governmental affairs, or any kind of governance, but it clearly isn't restricted to that. Rivera's use of the word was more than applicable, and yes, this post too is indeed political.

Really? Explain in detail Paul, how my quote was political:

Sorry only monks are allowed to roll. If everyone gets to roll and the monk loses, he's allowed to invoke a special "but guys you're not a monk" rule whereby he's allowed to feel entitled to it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

And lastly, explain how Kesselring's quote is political:

or you can just say "oh i didnt know we were rolling for that" after you lost your first roll and then roll again.

Dear Paul,
Now, I can see how you might stretch to proclaim that Swish's quote is political if you consider the monk class as a particular political group, because he cearly is determining that the monk class should have higher priority over other classes, but remind me when and where we ever thought of the monk class as a political group or party?
In reality, none of our posts were political. All three posts were written out of light hearted jest. Attempts on our part to create humor, granted maybe not the best!
All I see on behalf of Rivera is an angry elf, who thought he was making an intelligent crack on three different forumquesters who he obviously doesn't like.
I can tell this from his antagonistic comment about us coming from RnF, which clearly from his perspective is some bad, evil place where only terrible people post, and his responses to me with mocking roffels and lolols etc.
Only angry elfs write in this fashion btw...
I am disappointed that someone as affluent and intelligent as you, Paul, would even bother taking on this other angry elf's fight. Especially when his attack was totally unwarranted and misguided.
Paul, You know in your heart of hearts that none of these quotes were one bit political.
