View submission: Let's talk content. AMA.
There are some moderators that mod so many subreddits because a lot of them are small parody/related subreddits of their larger subs, like ___jerk subs. These take pretty much no effort to mod, because they're tiny, but the mods of the main subs still want control (rightfully) over all of the related ones.
Some people just mod too many subs, though.

They could set the limit as you can only mod X number of subreddits with more than Y users (eg. up to 10 subreddits with more than 5000 users), so if you want to mod a hundred tiny subreddits you can still do that.
