Hi, I'm new to this discussion, but have been a member of one TBD in form or another for about 10 years. I had the same "Ice Man" experience about a year ago. He started posting totally random stuff on my page. I let it go for quite a while, but got a little irritated when it didn't quit. He was pretty much bombarding me with weird posts. He sent me a video of sheep being shaved and the hair turned into wool, so I sent him a video of marijuana being harvested and turned into a joint. He sent goofy another video, and I sent another totally off the wall one back. It took a while, but he finally quit. (he was MIA for months last year, and I rarely see him now) Irritating? Yes! A threat, I kinda doubt it, but that's just my read on the guy. Ya can't be too safe these days. Just glad I'm not the only person he weirded out.

Barb, I just sent you a message over on FB about him...

All I've had posted on my profile are a couple pictures apparently from Wales.  One was probably his dog.  He is a member of TBD but not BOOKOHOLICS.

I've just deleted any messages from him. It's only on TBD and nothing very recent.

Ursula and Carci...yup, me, too. I'll get my profile changed as well...Dan'l jeeps borrowing my iPad while our Server is under repair...just don't want him getting wrong idea about my chat time here on TBD.

Ice-Man is some guy from Wales, who's been posting on my profile as well.  I just changed the settings on my profile page to require approval for anyone to post on my page and deleted all his stuff....or you can just ignore him.

Comment by Carci on August 29, 2013 at 10:17am

Who is Ice-Man and why does he keep posting weird pictures to my profile???

Anyone else getting this stuff?

Welcome Robert... love that you're already posting... nice to get fresh ideas from a new member... maybe some books you read that we haven't tried yet?
