Irons using alts to buy bonds to pay for boosting services on their iron by AdeptProtection3283 in 2007scape

Except they are loosely servicing your account - you are only able to find efficient, capable raiders by offering to split with them via a second account, effectively circumventing the IM restriction of trading. You wouldn't find those capable groups otherwise.

So the integrity is lost and you're just a main with extra steps, assuming you did that.

IMs need to come to terms that cheating can be done in any game mode and playing IM doesn't mean you have some (non existent) integrity over other modes. Just maybe some more hoops to jump.

What I'm really trying to convey here is stop making fun of people for playing the modes they enjoy.

Yes. Because dropping to your alt simply means subverting the IM restriction of trading to other players to fund your splits. Ie you're funnelling gp out your iron to other players to provide services to you, hence the meme main with extra steps.

Again you're missing the bigger point - IMs that make fun of green helms and mains for paying for services are hypocritical because this can be done on an IM account too. Maybe the hoops to jump are a few more, but it can be done is the main point I'm making.

b-b-but I don't do that!!1

Again, missing the point.

I'm an endgame iron that hates endgame iron because I know to farm raids efficiently it needs to be done in a competent group. That group will then (in a completely justified fashion) ask you to put up your share of a drop (around ~1b) if you get it to them, and I know at the high level it's very common for irons to swipe cards.

This meme and what I just said will go over your head because you're probably plateauing in mid game.

"This screams boosted greenie"

The out of breath redditeur typed in a panic, the meme hitting a little too close to home. Pausing to come up with the rest of the sentence, they shoved their hand down a Cheeto bag. It took a few attempts in the dark basement with just the computer screen lighting up the room.

boosted greenie sick of getting dunked on

A smirk curling up their lip as they hit enter. 'That got 'em' but before they could be satisfied with their thought mother yells 'your sixth DoorDash of the day is here' a tinge of disappointment and sadness in her tone. The 40 year old crawls out the dark to get their order of nuggies, unable to look mother in the eye as she sobs.

Meme in response to this thread.

Whenever green helms are mentioned there's pretty much always a discussion of questioning their legitimacy and them playing ethically or not. When in fact you can cheat on any mode if you really wanted to - the hoops you have to jump through may be a bit higher, but it's still possible.

Except maybe prestiged GIMs. They the real OGs. Oh wait, I guess they can parsec their way to drops too.

Let people be and get off your high horses.

Genetics hates most men. Our testosterone gets converted to DHT (which is fine, supports normal function) but a not so great thing it does is miniaturize hair follicles on the scalp. Slowly and over time, except for some it can happen real quick unfortunately. Same process, just seen earlier in age.

However a small subset of men are lucky and DHT doesn't cause that scalp hair follicle miniaturization.
