It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

As a Tern owner, I am here to tell you that you can approximate the benefits of a belt by waxing your chain. It lasts over 1000km on a single treatment, doesn't dirty your clothes or hands, doesn't pickup dirt, runs smoothly and silently and your drivetrain stays light and easy to service. Waxing is trivial with the newish Silca waxing system.
Do you live somewhere dry?

Sloppy conditions aren't a problem for waxed chains?
They're less so than lubed chains as far as I understand.
