What happened to my Answer, that I gave on Yahoo! Answers?

I answered a question, and it posted, edited it a few times after I submit my answer. This is to check and/verify my answer online (as I almost always do, depending on the question, and Yahoo! encourages this, and so do I so you don't cause someone Harm or Damage <Next time you give an answer, scroll down the page, and there is a search bar so you can research your answers on the right, sometimes isn't there until after you submit the question, so you can Edit). Anyway, the question went to Voting and my answer disappeared. Why?

Update:

*** Could it be that the asker Blocked me?

I am a little angry, I spent an Hour or so on that question (it was about Diabetes, I think). All that time wasted, when some of the info may have helped someone else even if they are stubborn and/or in denial. If I am blocked will my answer reappear after voting?

Thanks

Update 3:

****Another thing, the other answer were off, while one of them may get voted "Best Answer", and they didn't help the asker and won't be helpful for anyone else in the future, while my answer may have been. Bullcrap, I don't think I am going to answer anymore serious Questions, if they can just kick your answer off, or hide it, useless, that makes this site more of an entertainment Forum, than a research Forum. The Original Primary purpose of the Internet used to be about freedom and availibility of information and communication, but it's becomeing more and more about advertiseing and other and comercial forms of entertainment.

    Was your answer reported and removed from the display? Check your email inbox for a violation notice. If there is no violation notice, it's probably either another YA glitch, or some one has hacked into your account and removed YOUR answer INTENTIONALLY. This has happened to me several times. I know there are DOZENS of trolls, or many people with DOZENS of YA accounts, who love to annoy AND HARASS me on YA.

    It may still be there, where a number of votes have "thumbs downed" your answer and it is either deleted or hidden.

    your answer and other answers are hidden but the answer is still there.

    its so that people can choose a best answer.
