I made a similar thread to this one when sounds were first released (oh, what year was it...) in response to the abundance and widespread use of dubstep sounds and twelvie Kidz Bop kiais. And the suggestion I received was just because I was offended doesn't mean I was right. Some people subscribe to certain, distinct, tastes. This is particularly why I chose to use harsh noise as my genre of choice when searching for and creating hitsounds and kiais (and yes, harsh noise is a legitimate genre of music) . Matter of fact is: there's no sound quite more satisfying than the one that follows a series of screams. But that's just my own taste.

If you're annoyed by certain individuals' choices in sounds, chances are there's someone also quite annoyed by your own.

To each there own I suppose.

Besides, I believe that in this day and age, people should be fully capable of working a volume mixer. It's a free nifty feature that comes on your computer.
