Why wasn't this answer deleted?

I once asked a question about android and there was someone who answered ''fart''. I reported that answer and to this day it has still not been deleted, why?

This was my question: /question/index?qid=20150...

Yahoo sure then has a bad system with reports, I mean what's the point of having the option of reporting something if it gets ignored just because you don't happen te be a trusted reporter?

    It has to be Reported by a Trusted Reporter in order for it to be Deleted Yahoo Answers is Community Moderated the Staff does not Moderate the Boards 

    If a Trusted Reporter does not Report it then YA's Computer System wont take it down
