Some members list as many hashtags as possible thinking they'll show up in every search. Or they're too lazy to think about it.
Have you simply tried asking them to stop it? It might help; after all to be an Owner or Moderator means having to accept responsibility for keeping order, and sometimes that means taking a firm line. Persistent offenders can always have the prospect of moderation being applied.
On another level do you allow members to create hashtags or do you limit that capability to Moderators? If the former, then I would suggest considering the latter, followed by a clear out of some or all of the sillier ones that members have created. I suspect (but have no means of proving) that there is a "maximum sensible number" of meaningful hashtags, but I also suspect that the actual number may be different for different groups and their underlying purpose.
