    When we moved to Xenfora some of the signature options didn't come over. In the old software signatures were limited by a character limit, on Xenfora there are more options and there is a character number and number of lines limit. I've set maximum number of lines to 4 and unlimited characters.

What does JREF do exactly?

And why do they want me to cough up my hard earned cash? How exactly are they "fighting the fakers"? I'm genuinely interested, I have no idea what they do.
 
Scroll to the top of the web page you are posting from. See that big huge banner that says "James Randi Educational Foundation"? Click on it. See that says "What We Do"? Click on that. Click in turn on the tabs that appear. Read. Obtain enlightenment.

Ha! OK, I'm pretty sure that's what the kids today call "pwnage" and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Now excuse me while I try to dislodge this size 13 foot from my mouth :D

Probably a good example of why it's a bad idea to pose the big questions when you've been drinking.

Saves people's intellect. I remember the days chatting with Randi about how he thought I was delusional. He was basically Satan to me. But this damn forum kept popping up in Google when I was trying to find evidence of the supernatural. Oh yeah THAT is embarrassing...

And now for a good idea as to why to do so

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table.
David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.

There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya'
'Bout the raising of the wrist.
SOCRATES, HIMSELF, WAS PERMANENTLY PISSED...

John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say, could stick it away;
Half a crate of whiskey every day.
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart: "I drink, therefore I am"
Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed;
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed!

Grateful to know!

I had about 14 beers in me last night when I got the inspiration to post that.

I'm always happy to help out a fellow drinker. Now. Which way did we come in? :confused:
