At the top level have some broad categories, under those let the users create their own tags. Give those who have shown them selves worthy, the abilliy to edit the tags to weed out synonymous tags and other junk.
This standardized set of categories shall be the top level categories,
under which a system of dynamic tags can be made.
Creation of new top level categories would not be allowed, as that
involves changing the layout of the icons on the main page.
Creation of a new sub category should only be allowed after there are a
noticeable number of ads in the parent category. This limit should be
about 15 I think. So if a category only has three items in it, there is no
point in creating a new subcategory within it.
Also, any sub category which is a bottom level, should it go empty, it
should be removed automatically.
Mid-level categories that go empty, with a total of ads in it's immediate
subcategories of less then twenty, should delete the immediate
subcategories and move those ads and any deeper subcategories up one level
to itself.
