Need to Delete my answer! I was trying to report an answer and somehow my report got entered as an "Answer."?

The Best Answer had already been picked, so it was a Reference Question: The one word answer was abusive, but I don't want what I wrote as the report to be seen as An Answer.

But you can't edit an answer that you post if a Best Answer has already been picked.

What can I do to get it deleted? I can't "report" it, either.

    You can either email the Yahoo Answers Team y_answrs_team@yahoo.com (but this could take a while for them to get to it) or ask your contacts to report the content concerned.

    You could also email someone who has a high reporting trust (if you know someone) and see if they are prepared to help. I'm pretty sure most people would under the circumstances.
