alright I would like to bring in your attention a few examples

https://steemit.com/art/@kimal73/into-the-blue-and-jungle-river-fractals-original-artworks

tags used art illustration life photography science (life and photographt are misused and he has a pay out over $70)

https://steemit.com/food/@smailer/little-elephant-latte-art

tags used food life art steemit ( he is using steemit tags everywhere and life as well. I never saw you commenting on his posts)

https://steemit.com/art/@victoriart/the-night-sky-for-the-best-friend-my-own-watercolor-painting

tags used art painting steemsquad minnowsunite life (life tag I have no idea what minnowsunite is)

I find them in a matter of 2 minutes.
And you are targeting my post for 1 tag that is misused as you say. Even though gifs are made out of photography.

So what is it I am not getting? I call this discrimination. How would you call this?

I am sorry, @elenirossidou, but the point here is that this is not your original artwork. You can use tags like photography, art, or poetry when it's your original artwork, in other cases it's discouraged, because many users will assume it is your artwork and upvote accordingly.

You're partly right about tags like life and steemit, but unfortunately tags like these are too subjective...

I am not claiming this as my own. I have sourced my gif appropriate.
I think its unfair to get a warning for that post.
and discriminating, the least.
