There is a way to post a profile pic. I think you have to have 10 posts or more.

Abbrev is at the discretion of the poster. Some abbreviate some do not.

I have only seen v pics on the old chatroom, not in the forum. They have changed chatrooms and made changes so it should not happen again.

v-vomit, d-diaharea, nv-norovirus in most cases or Nevada
