Summary: alter table 'user' user_sig and bio fields to 'text'

Initial Comment:
This is not a bug but it is very needed because the limited size of these fields will cause big problems specially in 2-bytes languages.

For example in arabic and persian users just have 255/2=127 characters 

Please change the size to 'text'

ALTER TABLE `users`  MODIFY `user_sig` text;
ALTER TABLE `users`  MODIFY `bio` text;
