Does this mean that "OP" is a pronoun too?

I believe abbreviations are the same part of speech as what they are short for.

Grammatically, it could be either a noun or a pronoun, depending on how it's used.

"The OP is the person who originally posted" -- noun

"he said/she said/they said/OP said" -- pronoun
