Bad idea.
I'm making a bunch of communities myself, but mostly to see which communities stick or don't stick. 3 is too low a number. Like ~10 or ~20 is probably reasonable.
Not that I plan to truly own 20 communities. But I probably need to create 20 communities just to find 2 good communities with enough followers.
That being said, power-modders probably need to be automatically culled. There are a bunch of people coming in, not making a single post at all and then creating 30, 40, 50+ communities. You can tell if someone is truly dedicated because they'll make at least 2 or 3 posts as a "welcome" post, or non-default sidebars (etc. etc.).
So cap communities created per month, and have a global cap on communities modded?
