Disappointing that the top voted 'questions' in these AMAs end up being scandalous statements and conjectures while the actual questions get pushed down to the bottom.

That's my question, HattoriHanzo is my name on Reddit. I tried reaching him a year ago when that happened. But sadly, nothing came of it. It's not my fault everyone else wants to know :/ I still use and suggest other to use WA against my better judgement.

  Looking at the Android app page, they may have gotten confused because the screenshot has WA in it. That is, it's using your app to input math symbols into WA. That may have triggered a simple policy of "issue takedown for anything that is not ours that has WA in it."

      The app Stephen listed isn't mine. You won't find it in the market because it's "suspended". It was literally a fork of the system keyboard with the symbols page having math related symbols.

I'm more disappointed in the "I'm an X major and I love you so much!" comments. I'd like more questions regarding Alpha pro. It's a tempting purchase for a lot of people, myself included, but so much of it seems like nifty stuff I'll play around with from time to time, but never actually use.
