Yo, I don't know where to talk about this, but I come back and I look in my profile that someone changed it to something about Nazi's? The hell? I took it down, dunno how long it's been there.
Mods can't edit profiles? Can Pokemaster?
Pokemaster can, but only he.

Any mod gonna tell us why it was hidden?
Is this the question about teams for the battle maison?
no it was something like "what pokemon float in the air but are not flying type orhave leviate. It took me a long time to answer it and i couldnt edit it to make it look better.
my best guess is because no one really cares.  I mean, what use is it going to be to you?
Ask quaggy not me

Why was my question hidden? It had 3 answers and some guy there hidden it.
This is the question.
Legit question, a flag because one guy said it will take forever. but I don't see why was this hidden.

I need to know the reasons why it was hidden!

I'm not Will, but I'm pretty sure that it was because it wasn't a quality question. That's hour's worth of work that you can just go to a list of Megas and figure out yourself, it isn't that hard. Or you can just go to Smogon and see what they have to say about them. They've put them in tiers as well.
Looking through the comments, you stated that you really needed it... for what though? And also, don't post a question just because one that's similar is there (I'm noticing people are doing this a lot recently). Fossil Pokemon are different from Megas, there are much less of them and you only get access to one as part of each game's storyline, so having that list for them may be helpful to determine which one you want. But for Megas, there's almost 30 of them, which took Crimson and probably everyone else hours to do. It just seems like a waste when you can just go look up info on them and find out yourself.
Quite easy to answer.
And why was it hidden exactly?
Seems like a valid question. Not that long answers.

Mike hid it along with the other "impossible questions", probably because it wasn't going to be answered (at least in that point in time). Personally I see no issue with these kinds of questions, so I don't think the hide was necessary, but since I don't have the link either and because he probably had his own separate reasoning, I can't reshow it. Sorry :/
I edited in the link. Tbh I hated that question, and although I prefer it being hidden I don't think it's actually against the rules, and it really shouldn't be hidden. It's strange though - Mike disagreed with banning unanswerable questions here: http://pokemondb.net/pokebase/meta/52691/please-something-about-these-forever-answered-questions-sick?show=52706 I guess he changed his opinion on the matter.

EDIT: You also stated on the question that you didn't really care about it anymore, so in the eyes of Mike it may have looked like mere point-grubbing.
