What I've seen successfully done is to create very general categories and then see how they are being used. If enough threads are started that warrant a separate or sub-category, then it is created and the appropriate threads moved into it.

This way the board doesn't have a lot of categories that appear relatively slow or not used very much.

Just an observation.

My above comment is just an overall observation

and not specifically relating to DSTM's suggestions at all.


Just thought I'd clarify that in case there might be some confusion.
