I think the character limit just uses the BB code character count, which would also increase if doing things like bolding or italicising your text too. It’s an issue I ran into while the Patron profile options were around.

Big problem in profile messages.

How many characters?
A

Just one? It is literally the only letter A!
Setting color, font type+size, bold, italic. Those are 98 according to text editor:

[B][SIZE=4][COLOR=rgb(44, 130, 201)][I][FONT=arial]A[/FONT][/I][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B]


Of course it is an extreme case but using formatting and links adds up quickly.
