this is your profile link, https://pixeljoint.com/p/267235.htm

you will get what I means with amount of colours when you start to understand pixelart better . but anyway sorry if I offended you by any means, english is not my mother language, i try to be soft spoken, but i think it will be hard to conveyed it by writing. 

and you can try to upload new art with smaller colors, for this two, I think you still need to makes some edit, maybe by cuting the colors by half. 

use this setting on Fill in buket on CPS to reduce the color on your drawing. just need to pick and fill the color you wish to reducehttps://i.imgur.com/nze6mkw.png

and drop your edited picture in https://www.linneart.com/pj/  to see if you already reduced the colors, reduce it to 50 ish, and I will approve both of your image.

I'm not arguing that this peice has a place on this site - absolutely I'll stick to limited colours for posting here
I just dont think amount of colours means it Isnt pixel art

I joined the discord but I think I need to have an approved piece before I can proper join? unsure how to get proper profile link

I never heard or think pixel art ever expanded beyond that original meaning.   the only different with old pixel art is we don't have hardware limit anymore, We do have some piece that have more than 100 colors and accepted it into our gallery, but they still conservative on using colors. 
I believe 133 for this piece still too much colors, the different shade of maroon and blue can simply be combined into 1 or 2 colors. the different shade was the byproducts of you lowering the opacity of white (gradiented) border on your drawing. you can cut half of the color simply by removing that layer. 
but I will leave this matter to next mod, maybe he/she will have different approach. and please join our discord server we will be happy to have you there

I can agree with you about that being the origins of pixel art, and agree and accept on pixeljoint having a colour limit
But I solidly disagree that this isn't pixel art - pixel art has expanded beyond that original meaning
I'm fine with sticking to more limited colours for stuff posted here, but stuff with more colours is still pixel art even if it doesnt have a place here

Pixelart is an art born when the Hardware can't handle too much color. older game like og super mario bros maybe have max 16 colors. well nowadays, any hardware can easily handle thousand colour, but we in PJ believe the beauty of Pixelart is on the limited colour palette, and traditionally we can only call an Art a Pixelart if it have limited color palette (read the tutorial for more information). 
 
sadly I can't say your art here as pixelart, maybe something mimicking pixelart . and don't be sorry I would love you to learn and maybe become a Pixelartist too.

Good Drawing, but 133 colors still too much for this piece, I would recommend you not to reduce the color opacity or use gradient in your pixelart, simply use the colors already in your palette. it's wise to prepare the color you want to use before start drawing.
if you still confuse, this is some good tutorial: https://pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11299
 
and here is the link to inspect your drawing
 
we will be waiting for your edit.
