Should create them as the user that is going to use them.
I would extend that to:
Unless it is ABSOLUTELY and UNAVOIDABLE necessary to do ANYTHING as "root":
DON'T !!!
You WILL regret it!

Should create them as the user that is going to use them.  There are
times it is appropriate to create them as root, other times not so
much.  It is very much application specific, though usually you want
to create it as the user that will need to use the file or directory. -- Dan.

So I should create all directories as normal user then?
