Hi, you are correct about the wait times being too long, but it is far worse than you make out. the way I see it, this game will not get a sub from me because of it.

being Australian, this game offers poor ping times to USA servers, but decent ping to Japan, so most Australians use the Japanese servers. Tonbery is the unofficial one, but is constantly restricted. any other server is mainly Japanese players, so new Australian players are greeted with the option of bad ping and never making it out of aoe rings with American early morning players, ie none, or foreign speaking servers with very few players.

I started a character on trial (paid, no sub). the storyline up until level 30 has taken me through 5 dungeons and the average wait time is 90 minutes. yes, that is correct, the longest was 2 hrs.

I can see where this is leading, and while I would have liked to go through the story to the end (or close enough, 50 or whatever), i wont be wasting my time.
