Spamton

With the release of Deltarune Chapter 2, the immediate explosion in popularity of the character Spamton was felt in the Duckpond. The character was mainly posted by Goombario, Lm1xb, and Zigzem although many other members would make comments about Spamton because it was impossible to avoid him. Gifs and memes were posted so frequently that the general chat, #shallow-end, was renamed to #spamton-chat. The three previously mentioned Stardew Crusaders all had their status set to "Now's your chance to be a [[Big Shot]]" as well, although Lm1xb and Ziggy would eventually change their statuses.

Spamton, full name Spamton G. Spamton, is a robotic Darkner and antagonist in Chapter 2 of Deltarune. He is initially encountered in Cyber City, where he is fought as a miniboss. After his battle, he appears as a shopkeeper in the Trash Zone. His shop is unusual in that his items are not what they appear, and their prices fluctuate rapidly while looking at them.
Spamton appears as a diminutive robotic ventriloquist's dummy that wears yellow and pink glasses that sometimes change colors and a long-sleeved black V-neck shirt, with black hair that is slicked back, appearing similar to a pompadour. After becoming Spamton NEO, Spamton assumes the form of the machine he inhabits. The body of this form looks like a disheveled Mettaton NEO with a gaudy pink and yellow color scheme, and a laser cannon mounted onto his hand. Countless green wires suspend him in the air.
Spamton was once a natural salesman, always willing to cut a deal. While he still bears a shadow of these traits, his deals are now often nonsensical or violent. He claims that he became a salesman not for the money, but for the freedom to make his own deals. However, he still attempts to scam Kris for money (which he refers to as "Kromer") at every opportunity. His speech patterns are similar to typical obfuscated spam email text, with many words replaced with non sequitur variants in square brackets that could imply incorrectly-applied mail merge variables or hyperlinks, or various voice glitches. 
In much of his dialogue, he seems mentally confused and insane, seemingly projecting himself onto Kris, contradicting himself, and saying things which make little sense, without warning. This mental instability seems to clear up briefly after fighting him in his NEO form, as he wishes Kris success with their journey without using broken English. Spamton consistently spells "generosity" as "genorisity," "guarantee" as "guaranttee," and "special" as "specil", with an exception for the latter at the end of the Spamton NEO battle after snapping all the wires.
