Alts + soulstones in raids? GM answer please!

Hello fellow nostalriusers!

Me and my guild are a bit on the try-hard side I guess for even considering this but just in case we do go ahead with our plans we'd like to know first if what we are doing is even legal. This is exactly how it works:

We plan on leveling warlock alts to 20 for the usage of soulstones in raid. We would log in with our alts before a boss fight in BWL for instance, and soulstone each others raiders. We would not be soulstoning our own raiding character by having the warlock on a different account. So this can be done without any multiboxing being involved. I have heard rumours, however, about this not being okay in vanilla, and so i'm wondering if any GM coul please answer us before-hand so that we dont get our entire guild banned just for try harding a little.

Thank you in advance!

By the logic that this was not okay, then everyone who ever buffs you randomly without being in a group should be banned.
You log on your alt and give a buff to a friend, in return, he does the same. I don't see this as anything wrong.

^ This. I don't see why it would not be allowed, but I can see where it would be a pain in the ass getting level 20s near BWL, and keeping them there without being ganked.
The level of whining about bans on the forums is at an all time industrial level.

Well as I said, I personally cant see how this breaks any rule yet I did hear a rumor about it not being ok. As I'm sure most of you know, this server has a history of banning first and warning later (no offense). I just want to be sure that what we are doing is 100 % legit and I hope a GM can confirm it. I love this server and spent way too much time into it just to get banned over something like this. Yes, I am paranoid, but for good reasons.
