My objection is this. The guy makes personal judgement calls for/against various waterblock designs that are in total contrast to established measured reality. This is what is commonly referred to as "trolling". The reasons for which were already established dating back to some time where he had asked for a free waterblock to review for which I had misplaced that email and set him off on his attack tangent, most of which the content has been subsequently edited out of his reviews.

So of course this draws the expected cries of injustice from myself, and others who chose to voice their concerns, and in return I get attacked for being arrogant and elitist in earlier posts (which have since been edited), but whose content ran pretty much like that above.

I'm sorry if I don't understand why I should then be told by the same person that I should now feel humbled for having exposed a flaw in my character by responding to an attack on my work.

It makes no sense at all. Then the guy attempts to defend his actions by saying that we are all biased and have some other motivations. This is patently ridiculous. If the guy hasn't even seen the waterblock he's commenting on, let alone measured it, how can he then make claims such as which pumps are required for certain designs?

This is a total farce. The guy has been caught out fabricating opinions and attempting to pass them off as fact, and then turns around and attempts to attack those who call him on his fantasies, and attempt to drag them down to below his level by claiming that we're all stupid and motivated by other reasons.

The line of reasoning through that bizarre set of logic would be laughable if the guy wasn't serious. Instead it's just utterly sad how deluded his perception of reality is.
