@ShelBeast Sure, so Bob has a disagreement with his Starbucks coffee and he throws his 16 dice in Intimidate at a barista for not giving him a soy latte. Everyone else thinks Bob is an asshole, whereas Bob just wanted to use his social dice. Bob then goes to a bar, uses another 16 dice on someone to make friends, because he can't find common ground with someone otherwise.

Rolls aren't a panacea. Rolls shouldn't replace actual role playing, which is what the purpose of this entire hobby is for. The moment the outcome of any and all interactions have to be decided by a roll, then we're better off just playing Neverwinter Nights (excellent game by the way) or something.

You can play whatever you want, just don't use your rolls in such a way you're essentially replacing your story for statistical success.
