Insane waiting times on RapidShare

Tweet

A few days ago I wanted to download a game and like most times found it on Taringa. Also like always, the game is spread across a number of RapidShare files in 10 links or so. So I started by the first, then the second and so. I wasn't downloading from RapidShare from a long time ago, but it really surprised me the time I have to wait. Between each file, it was almost ONE HOUR of waiting. That is, when I finished one download, I must wait 60 minutes to begin the second part. Those times were always for free users but never like that. I can remember a 15 minutes one as the biggest, and on some of the other similar servers even less or nothing. RapidShare used to be THE best web file hosting some day, but since the introduction of the "rapids" they have greatly turned down each day. Now a once great server is just crap. What are your troughs on this? Have you experienced such annoyances?
