@sinoples That is actually an excellent question. Many times the poles are not shown because map images are laid out on a lat/long grid and those grids converge at the poles. This makes for tricky computer code. Another reason is that the available imagery just isn't as good. Finally, many maps are Mercator projections and those can't show the poles at all!
heheh cool, I love how in Google Earth you fly up and pan across the globe when going to different locations, would be awesome if SL did a load screen line that when teleporting
@hackshaven They probably hate it because it reminds them that they waste their life in a video game. It has graphics, written in programming code, you control an avatar/character, It's a video game.
@hackshaven don't you find this a little extreme? Does they seriously get all offensive when someone states the obvious? "Hey, what game are you playing" "ITS NO GAME THIS IS REAL LIFE! DON"T YOU DARE USE THE WORD GAME IN VAIN" .. retarrrrded.
A thought just flashed through my brain. Imagine, around 2500 there a real game called Second Earth, and everybody would play it, forever, untill they die lol
@Nokitfer You know? I've been thinking the same all the time.That we are actually playing a game called "Earth".That we are actually advanced far away in the future and that we invited life like graphics for a game.We will play this game until we die.Then with no memory of what we did all that time we will resume or normal alien future lifes.
i like that game :)

@starwarsguy123ful It's a data visualization that was built inside a "game" called Second Life. People hate it when you call Second Life a game.

@hackshaven But it is a game. It's just a very, very open-ended sandbox MMO.
