This thread is bonkers, I can only imagine the confusion it's generating for newcomers to our sport.
Chains need cleaning and oiling, .........Everyone seems to have their own way of cleaning the chain, almost any technique must be better than never cleaning it! FWIW,........I have a nice trick for cleaning between sprockets on the cassette, wrap part of an old T Shirt around an old credit card and insert between each gap while spinning the cranks backwards.
Apparently some people get their butler to do it, with their own credit card :eek:

I just squirt 3 in 1 all over it, wipe any off if it's dripping on the floor, ride for several thousand miles putting more lube on when I remember to do so, and then change chain and cassette if needed :biggrin:
2015 update: I am now a lot more careful with my equipment (oo'er) and my chain and sprockets are now clean as clean can be :okay:
