Description
Would it be possible Signature for Forums module would get a feature to set maximum number of characters per line?

#1
Are your users trying to get around the number of lines limit by posting really long lines?
I'm wondering if a maximum number of characters per signature might be a better solution, or would that not cover what you're trying to do?

Yes this is the idea behind this feature request.
I have this enabled:
-custom signature filter just with "Line break converter" and "URL filter".
-The maximum number of lines allowed in a signature. I set this to 3.
But there really isn't nothing users not to copy/paste one as long as he/she want text in one line.
So yes:
This would be a solution that would get the job done. I could calculate aproximating number of charachters to fill 3 lines in my fix width forum. Or if i would have fluid width forum i could still calculate aproximating number of charachters so there would be some "reasonable" limit for users not to do "bad" or should i say "inconvenient" things.
I noticed something else abaut "Line break converter" and i opened feature request here to discuss the ideas.

Thanks for clarifying. :)
This is a worthy feature request. I'll implement it when I have a moment (unless someone wants to supply a patch, of course!).
