Manoring on other players' mobs question

I decided to manor some mats to help my A grade crafting, but its very slow on 1x mobs, and i dont like being solo in a place with many 3x-4x mobs, that are mostly aggro, so decided to do manoring on mobs that are being hunted by bots.

Can anyone tell me for sure, is it possible to get banned just for that? Because i heard some stories about that happening, but as this has not happened to anyone i know directly, i cannot tell if this is true or just rumors.

It is perfectly acceptable. HGMSpam said so.

I do it quite a lot. Do 500 seeds in a morning, turn them in at night (you-know-whos permitting) and sell the mats by the morning, making a healthy profit.

Go knock yourself out and get summat out of the buggers coz they aren't going anywhere anytime soon. ;)
