Which Diplomacy Rule Do You Use (if any)?

[Hussar]

Pretty much by the book for me. It works in my group.

reaction is via 2d6. go watch your futurama episodes again.

I said modified SRD, but it looks like a common sense (rather than explicitly defined) version of Rich's, in practice.

Other, specifically CJM's Diplomacy Hack which I helped a little with.

I said House Rules, but mine's somewhere between modified SRD and Rich.

SRD, but I modify the rolle by circumstance. If the player role-plays out the interaction, I will heavily modify the results.

I know a player that thinks that the Diplomacy "result" should soley be based on what is said by the person trying to charm/calm the target. That's fine if the person is eloquent, but I have some players that are not well spoken and wish to play high Cha characters some times. Should I tell them that they could only play characters with Cha 8 or less? I don't think so.
