When making beats/producing?

Sometimes I find a sound thats ill in the synth presets (like in Massive for instance), but I'll still tweak something on the synth and/or run it through an effects chain to make it sound more unique. Because, personally, I'm uncomfortable using presets straight up.

But I'm wondering if it's pretty much accepted that you can use a preset sound, or its frowned upon (meaning you get less respect for it, generally).

Thoughts?

If it fits then sure, and most people wouldn't even know it's a preset.  Me personally I don't like using preset synths but the presets on Massive are decent enough to use as is.
