Unexpectedly Losing Access To Games

When I logged onto Roll20, I found that a campaign that I was a player of (Tower of the Stargazer) was no longer one of my Recent Games, or any game that I was part of. I couldn't find the game through the Looking For Group search, despite knowing the day and time the game played on, and I was only able to find it through a link the DM put in a LFP post. There, the page said I was already a participant, but scrolling down showed I was not one of the players at all, and clicking the Game's Details Page link led me to a "Not Authorized" page. Oddly enough, the GM was also no longer a contact in my Skype the same time this occurred, but whether the two have anything in relation I do not know. I do not know why this is happening. I'm using Chrome 49.0.2623.110 on Windows 10 if that helps.
You may have been kicked from the game. I recommend reaching out to the GM to confirm whether or not this is the case.

Also, when a player is kicked from a game, that game's join link changes. If you are unable to reuse the join link you were sent, then at least one player has been kicked from that game.

If that's the case, then there has to be a better way to convey that information, such as an automatic PM informing you were kicked. The DM hasn't responded to me on ether Skype or Roll20, so I will try messaging one of the other players. Logically speaking, however, I had just joined the game only several days ago and the campaign hadn't even started, so it's why I thought this was some bug. Second time this happened, except the previous time I concluded that the GM had ether deleted his account (hence his profile saying [Deleted]) or blocked me.
Yeah, sadly it's more common than it should be.  I've had many players just dissappear without word.  People just don't understand some basic decency sometimes.  I concur on the simple message from Roll20, but if the DM hasnt responded, then he probably quit the campaign himself.

Sorry to hear about your disappearing DM. I can confirm that you were kicked, and that the game is now pretty much empty. My guess is that the DM decided he was "done" and removed everyone else from the game. 
My logic is still doubtful it's the case, but it's the only answer I can get. Thank you for the responses, I believe I can say my problem has been resolved. However, I feel to prevent cases like this from popping up again would be to update Roll20 with an automatic notification system so user such as myself don't panic when they suddenly can't get into a campaign anymore and the GM is not responding. Once again, thank you for the feedback..
