The Art / Drawing tags need more awareness towards anti-plagiarism & spamming.
People need to check a users blog feed rather than blind upvoting/commenting on a user they haven't seen before.
You'll notice a pattern in spammers posting stock photos, re-steeming random posts and posting random drawings as their own which are all unsigned and in different styles. Mute spammers and you'll notice in other spammers blog feeds that they are re-steeming each other to boost their rankings and you can start to spot spammer teams/bots/fake accounts.
Artists - sign your work with your @ name & date (if new work).
If posting older work, describe your process and materials so we know its yours.

Yes the tagging is also abused so much, I have seen many people tagging their post in introduceyourself just because it has very much visibility ... and your are right about checking the blog feed you can say a lot about the user by looking at that ... Art tag is misused so much just because it has a very long list of followers including many whales .. so a proof of work Like a sign is surely needed.
i always add tags that my post fits in, i've said it again and i will keep saying it, authenticity people!
