I have no words...

So, seems like FA's staff really hates me in particular for some reason. Just received an answer from them regarding why my pics where removed. The answer was, and I quote:
"Your content was removed for being photographs focusing on body parts without creative content. Fur Affinity does not allow photography of that type."
Which ok, if the site was strictly banning this sort of things I would be fine. But search for "feet" and select for photography only, you can bet many of those 1200 results are pics just like mine (and since many aren't even tagged there are more as well I'd imagine). So why are mine specifically that are getting removed? kamilxoxo, mesuta, barefootboy28, I expect there will be a purge of them as well, right? Cause that's the thing with rules. You apply them equally. I'm not calling out these creators cause they did wrong to me, but to underline the hypocrisy that's been going on with the treatment of my content specifically.
Additionally, "without creative content" should reasonably make sense for things like snaps, quick selfies and stuff you'd post on social media. I spend time and edit every single image, one by one, so that it's of high quality, write a little teasing to frame it well if not a caption, not to mention the time to take the pic, the investment I did for better equipment, as I want these to be the highest quality I can deliver... and I get demolished. And you come to me saying this is not creative content?
I'll be honest, this is quite the let down. Again, not because I can't post my pics on here. I have a Pixiv account, I know what it's like if the whole site doesn't accept irl pics. But this is something else. This I can only describe as targeting... and has left a very bad impression and taste on this site. I'm very disappointed... I'll head to sleep, I'm tired after this...

I hope you feel better soon <3
The situation is slightly better since they are not removing only my content, but they definitely have to really change the rulings as to be more precise and understandable so not to cause them to look this bad, calling out creators who care and removing their stuff saying they lack creativeness in their post... š
