Um... wait, did I miss something? All of the sudden all the kanks in the world died out? I feel dumb for asking this, but anyone mind giving me a link to the story page or something about details when they all disappeared? Yeah, I did read "help kank", after looking at the main page updates, that really surprised me.

Second last paragraph
Wow, that was a long time ago. I know I've never seen kanks in the game, but it's weird that it seemed to only be mentioned now.
There was a pretty big plot involving this about a year ago. There's generally a year moratorium on mentioning IC things OOCly, so actually it kind of makes sense if you think about it. :)
