I'm not sure what that means...

It means rather than distribute the computer programming code along with the executable program, just give the program.

This makes it harder for others to know what the program is doing - some people would rather not use a program like that, which is why he's asking. On the other hand, forum moderators might prefer it, since it gives others less of a recipe for ripping an entire threads worth of images (and possibly rewriting the program in a way that would be much harder on the server). Or, mods might prefer he not distribute a program that allows one to rip entire threads worth of images at all, which is also why he's asking.

That's how I understand it, anyway.
