I know dude, that is why I thought it was pointless about signing up as a tester. I did it out of curiosity to see what they wanted testing but I know they arent going to do anything about the feedback I give them. I think it is all a PR stunt to make it look like they have listened to the feedback from the users before it goes to general release.

In theory yes, but VM don't adhere to established methodology and standards. Users on this forum report major issues when testing firmware and then a few days later you get an annoucement from VM saying "after successful trials we will be rolling out Rxx at the start of next week". There is no way that gives them the time they need to address any issues and test again to see if they have been fixed.
