The dice roll should be waived when charisma based actions are roleplayed well
ColdfreezeZero
My DM agrees with that, really allows roleplay well.
Shiggy345
Punishing players who are shy or inarticulate?
No, encouraging shy players to roleplay in a roleplay game and inarticulate players to challenge themselves and get creative.
ShadedAeon
It depends on the context. But what we do is a combination. You make your roll, but you have to say what you're saying, and there could be
Bonuses based off what you say/how good your argument is. We're very rp heavy though, generally.

If the roleplay is good I'd let players roll with advantage. Better than just hearing "I'd like to intimidate the shop keeper"
A 5e player, I see

Last session our rogue and bard tried to high five eachother and rolled a 2 & 3. DM: "You slap eachother, everybody sees, you look dumb af"
Bairoko
... I feel like that shouldn't require a roll...
I mean youre right, it shouldnt, but in the context of the session the rogue and bard were being lil shits so this was the DM's get back
Fair enough. I once ran a game and was questioned on why it was raining. Shouldn't I make a roll? They asked. So, I picked up the die
Rolled, and without looking at the result "What do you know, it says it's raining. Anyways..." never questioned about the weather again
