AV could be lot of things, but two that might have at least some correlation to the sender would be that it's an alternative representation for gold (Au) and it's the Hebrew month not named in the bible (presumably due to it being so unlucky in their history).
EDIT: There's "Armor Value", but that's a gaming term more than anything related to the person.

It's either that or "Artificial Vulva". Wink

Ok, well, the character will not answer any questions as to why he shares a name of a famous Nazi, what he's a doctor of, or what his signature file means. He just wants people to figure out the scary videos people have sent him.

And this is where I'll step off the bus, because until I know what the potentially distasteful items mean, I don't feel at all right partaking in the game, such as it is.

Edit: These videos have photos of dead people and woodcuts of torture scenes. Don't watch if you're easily disturbed.

Given the font is somehow gothic and all the videos show some medieval pictures ( disturbing videos yeah :s ) and a roman statue , I searched for AV meaning in latin and I get this :

a.v. ad valorem. "In proportion to the value of [something else]." Literally, "To the value." Usage: "The monetary worth of the dollar is figured a.v. the price of gold."

... also AV was used as an abreviation for AVE same meaning and sign as the nazi "Heil" .

Meh, I feel comfortable enough to stick around. definitely gonna install an ABORT ARG button next to my computer so I can hit it if things get too weird. I'd hope to get some answers from this guy soon though.
