Making a new table for each category is very wrong, vBulletin normalized the database for a reason.

Bit off-topic but a while ago I saw someone with a custom site that created a table for each customer with 30+ columns in each table.

because i have dream
possible make specific category of forum maintenance the database table
example : category JOKES have 2GB Size, and we close this this category, then we do the maintenance example analyze, repair etc. But other category still running smoothly.
