Edna Bambrick is the name of an older age woman that often comes to this site with every chance she has. Supposedly, she mostly comes on to report any violations whatsoever on anyone she can. As I heard, the reason why she does it is because she feels as if she is making the Internet safe. After a while, she became the most popular individual (celebrity) on this site because she was the most hated as well. Many people then tried to report on her with any reason[s] they can find whatsoever and I believe they succeeded in it. Yet, it didn't stop there, because her celebrity status continued on within the site, even though she might have been suspended from here. As a comical sense, some people thought it would be humorous to impersonate her on the site by creating screennames with her name as it, also her picture included as well. Not long after, it got out of control, because it sparked the 'Edna Phenomena', whereby many more users followed in-step by replicating the same antics as the original pranksters. This is when many 'Edna imposters'; sprung up all throughout the site, as it continues still, thus creating a cult. Yahoo! had taken the action by suspending as many suspicious Yahoo! Answers accounts that is the sole intent of impersonating Edna. Yahoo! did the same as well with questions pertaining to the subject of Edna. There are many of the 'Edna imposters' remaining somewhere out there parading around while impersonating Edna. Also, it continues that many people who do not know who Edna is, asks about the whole 'Edna phenomena'. That is so far all I know about the whole phenomena.

Edna Bambrick, a name that any active current Yahoo! Answers user will know is one of these such people. Almost EVERYONE on Answers has their own opionion about Edna, but regardless of what anyone thinks, she is obviously a very popular woman on Yahoo! Answers. Her legacy and popularity have shadowed her true mission on answers. Edna is a Christian woman, who joined answers and immediately began to make some people very upset. She declared that some of the questions and answers on Yahoo! Answers were dirty, unclean and were clearly breaking Yahoo guildlines. She began to "report" these questions/answers to Yahoo. Her reporting answers and questions caused great anger toward her, declaring she had no right to stop some people from having a little fun on Yahoo! Answers. Before long, other people began to make other "Edna Bambrick" accounts mocking her name and her constant reporting.
Currently, there are over thirty (and counting) different accounts that seek to destroy and anger Edna for her work on answers, or at least mock her and play with her popularity. These account names include: edna_ishere, Goth Edna, Flower Child Edna, Vomit Edna, Edna the Viking, Fredna Bambrick, Bling Bling Edna, Sex Kitten Edna, Barney Bambrick, My Big Fat Greek Edna, Edna Bongbrick, Stick Edna Bambrick, Boxer Edna, Edna Wonka, Edna CrackBrick, Edna Bambshit and many, many more, each looking for a share in Edna's popularity.
Users on Answers have been split on how to take this woman. As mentioned earlier, some clearly hate her and want her gone. Some believe that Yahoo! Answers does need cleaning up, and that she is just trying to make it a better place. Some have no opinion, but throughly enjoy those who impersonate her, and the havoc her name and her impersonaters have caused on Answers. Some simply want the peace and quiet, and do not like the havoc her simply being there is causing. Whether the "Edna Bambrick affair" will come to a quick close or not, its clear that its causing quiet a stir in Yahoo! Answers dynamic.
