RS Download-Limit Increased!!!!

Thank the gods!

From the Rapidshare FAQ:

The Happy-Hours are back?

Yes, but we do not have fixed times for them, because the traffic required for this is HUGE. In the next days we will activate the happy-hours somewhere between 23:00 CET and 01:00 CET and they will be automatically disabled at 13:00 CET. This means they will be active for 12 hours!

I was just getting ready to let everyone know of this as well...I first noticed yesterday evening, thank the gods for sure!

Good Find

This is the wrong forum for this post. It needs to be moved to "News & Announcements" or to the trash.

wicked as there up for 12 hours. nice as i cant wait so ican download the huge files

Apparently rapidshare has increased the max file size to 100 megabytes. Meaning less wait time when happy hour isnt in effect. Pretty cool, if you ask me.

when are the happy hours run? sadly, i'm not seeing them. thanks for the help.

I went to the rapidshare homepage and tried to find out when happy hour was. I found no mention of it. I think it was discontinued again because of what this statement says.

Maybe some people have realized that we have experimented a bit with the system today. However, we have found out that many users prefer a fast and reliable system than a system without download-limits, which is very slow. so we decided to undo our changes and deliver a service we always have delivered: Reliability and speed. We hope this decision is the right one for you. We changed the max file-size from 50 to 100 MB, which will be permanent now.

Instead of offering slow unlimited downloads they just increased the download limit per hour

I think that must be much better.

Happy Hours seem to be gone again, file limit is now 100 MB per file!!!
