So yeah… maybe the turtle slowly waking up that he was just a Laptog for reddit and thrown away as soon as they didnt need him anymore ( moderation is allways a volunteer thing and shouldnt be like a 2nd job ).

Wouldn’t this just encourage alt accounts to get around the rule? You’re only hiding it with sockpuppets instead of allowing it to happen transparently.
If the admin find out they can then take action
You could do it per email address, at least on platforms where your account is tied to one. Doesn’t stop it, but if you’re only allowed to mod 5 communities, you’d need a lot of sock puppet emails to mod 1000+.
If you own a domain, it’s trivial to set up a catch-all redirect to your real email address. I, for example, have this account linked to lemmy_world_grue@example.com. With the maximum length of an email address being 254 characters and the “lemmy_world_” and “@example.com” parts taking up 24 characters, I could create up to 350! - 1 (yes, that’s a factorial) more usernames, each linked to a corresponding unique address. (Well, give or take any limits Lemmy imposes on username length, anyway.)
