Timed chat messasge not working? HELP!

[DJMullaney]

function ChatWarning()
	print("ChatWarning() called.")
	PrintMessage(HUD_PRINTTALK, "Maintenance mode: On\n The server may become unstable or close unexpectedly!")
end


if maintenanceon == true then
	timer.Create("ChatWarning", 30, 0, ChatWarning())
end

Why isn't this working? I'm trying to make it continuously print to the chat every 30 seconds if maintenancemode == true.

lua/autorun

function chatWarning()
	print("ChatWarning() called.")
	PrintMessage(HUD_PRINTTALK, "Maintenance mode: On\n The server may become unstable or close unexpectedly!")
end


if maintenanceon == true then
	timer.Create("WarningMessage", 30, 0, chatWarning) -- Dont need () on functions in the timer
end

This should work just tested it
