Who the hell are Limelight?
I don't know but if CCP wanted to be real jerkholes about it they'd just post a link to their customer service forums here. 
*edit* Never mind, I found them. Here's their contact info:
http://www.limelightnetworks.com/contact.htm
Now I suppose we'll see what eve-o whiners are really made of.

Limelight have forums? All I've found so far is:
Email: [email protected]
Phone: 866-544-4830
Phone: +1 602-850-5200
Probably not actually.
Which means our gang would have to actually voice their concerns over the phone in real time to live people who might just tell them to eat a **** rather then comfortably flaming Invisible Internet Ppl from behind their keyboards.
I can see how that might pose a problem.

You're assuming we're not ****heads IRL. 
I'd never assume that. 
I'm assuming you're gutless IRL.

Why Limelight has me the whole way seems kind of amazing. I mean they own nearly all of the routers between me and the UK (over 6,000km)? Kinda scary to me to think a single ISP controls so much of that traffic (makes "single point of failure" even more of a big deal).
They don't. My tracert never touches Limelight; my ISP takes my e- crap to Chicago and hands it off to a company called Level 3 Networks (Level3.net) which then takes it to some unidentified IP in (presumably) London, and then there's one more of those and then it's CCP's ball.
I'm also not having disconnects.
Quote:
One would also think CCP would have redundant connections to their cluster via a different company. If so shouldn't there be a way to route around Limelight?
Based on the above here's how I'm guessing it works: your ISP is paying Limelight to carry its transatlantic data and mine is paying Level 3. If Limelight was "CCP's ISP" then wouldn't everybody be going through them at some point?
