^It is rather frustrating to have typed out a lengthy post only to be greeted with the "brb screen."

I vote for a new ''brb screen'' every few weeks. Something funny or interesting to look at.
Maybe you could leave a positive or inspirational quote for the day.

As far as a time goes for maintenance. I say late evenings.

From the nightly lurking I do I see a lul in activity from 3-5AM EST. After 3AM EST there is very little posting. At 5AM EST is usually when the overseas members start logging in.

I dont have that issue. I keep hitting refresh when the BRB comes up, and when it finally logs back in my post is there. If you click Back it usually wipes the message clear.

Just putting it out there...

What if we had a little system maintenance countdown timer up near the banners?
So when it needs doing Avery could give us a 5-10 minute warning?
