By the rules set forth, there are no real iron man accounts. Paul, Adam, and even Josh, who plays much more strictly (doesn't allow himself to complete heroes/shield of arrav) have already broken some of those rules. Adam (and I think Paul) have berserker rings. All three have done nmz.
On the subject of nmz, I think it should be allowed. None of the rewards are really that unreasonable for iron men. In fact, it's UNREASONABLE for an iron man trying to max to have to mine all his own p ess for 99 rc (1m ess, 91 mining) then runecraft it all. Runecrafting would be a two year+ ordeal. Plus, all that time spent getting 91 mining doesn't benefit your smithing skill at all. Runescape is a very time consuming game as it is, let alone for iron men. NMZ doesn't require player interaction, so it should be allowed, period.
Also, is there a way to check trade logs on osrs accounts? If iron man mode passes could people claiming to be iron men just submit a request to have their trade logs looked at? Then if they've never accepted items in trade/stake they can have their account converted?
