Jerry needs to tweak the settings for the Charter Member group for Signatures to match the settings for members. You might even want to Email him directly.

He apparently made a new user group very recently to resolve the Charter Member issue and has a few more settings to fix.

Once a Charter Member subscription expires and you’re moved to Guest status you will not be able to regain Charter Member status. Please renew your subscription prior to your subscription expiration. If not your options become a Member subscription at $14.95 or remaining at Guest status.
