Signature length limit incorrect

[Firepup650]

According to the profile edit page, a signature can be 255 characters. However, from my testing the actuall limit is 249. Any ideas on why this is the case?

@Firepup650

your current signature is exactly 255 characters in length...

@pwsincd In that case, the thing that says how long it is is incorrect

alright

for me it says "signature can not be longer than 255 characters" but above the signature text box it says 403/255

@pwsincd No, Firepup650's signature is 250 not 255 (but 250 is still more than 403 and 249...)

Huh???



My proposed signature is actually 403 characters but it still doesn't let me save it!
