I have multiple accounts on different instances. Some apps, including Voyager, support it. If you have multiple accounts on the same instance and start getting banned, you might have a bad time. If your accounts are on different instances, it will probably be less of a problem, and what banned you on one may not even be bannable on the other. For an idea of how bad it can get, watch for user cm0002 or somesuch, and try to figure out how many instances he's on.
