1the bridge frequently leaks into meta, this is not a new phenomenon - not sure what the deal with your flag status is - I've just been through all of my flags and I've never seen 'none' before...– user27134Commented Apr 19, 2013 at 9:04

If I remember correctly, this occurs when you place a "Not an Answer" flag on an answer that is deleted without moderator intervention.– LessPop_MoreFizzCommented Apr 19, 2013 at 14:05

Basically Rory is right. The flag was nulled because it was raised and resolved by the same person (you).– a catCommented May 24, 2013 at 21:07

This post on Meta Stack Exchange suggests that when you vote to close a question, any flags you also raise on it are nulled, to prevent an unnecessary (and exploitable) increase in helpful flags:
I assume that this has been extrapolated out to answers and that you cast a delete vote as well as raising the flag? This would likely result in the flag being recorded as 'none' to fit the pattern Jeff describes for questions.
