Testbeds are still gg to be the source of the problems, and the interpretation of results from them. I wasnt around for the last feud, but I had heard some rumblings about it enough to guess what it was about.
You've always been a supporter of the Waterblock Testers Association (was it called that?), but even with two standardisd testbeds in two locations, it could very well cause enough discrepency in numbers when testing that manufacturers or vested interests will cry foul.
At that, the margin of difference in some of these blocks is getting ridiculously small. I just finished doing an overview of about 11 blocks ( Most of the AquaXtreme range, WW, Storm, TDX etc). It was way too much of a pain and too much of a wallet killer to get the level of reviews that the people here on ProC want, and even then I'd be scared to remotely mention anything about the overview as it still would get torn to shreds.
At the end of the day, I'd love to help, and I reckon so would a bunch of other people, but there still is that ongoing fear of getting ripped a new one because one review doesnt meet the ridiculously high criteria of some members, or someone else has an agenda, which is getting quite ridiculous on an online forum meant to share knowledge and love of watercooling. Its gotten to the stage whereby this place is seen as a trolling idea for ideas in the watercooling industry and easy money corrupts many a heart.
