The king of town hasn't been on the scene in a while. Why? :eekdance:

Not to sound overly moddish, but your signature is a little to big. The maximum size is 500x100 pixels.

Anyway, you must give some things time. Pom-Pom hasn't been around for awhile, and he hasn't been demoted to a minor character, yet. It just depends on TBC's ideas while making toons and when they get ideas for a Strongbad Email.

I was just watching the first Halloween cartoon the other day, and I realized the KoT has had exactly zero character development in the past five years. So maybe that's why. :\

There's not much the KOT can do. He's just a fat gluton that's unpopular. He was in Get up noise though, and that was recent.

TBC isn't going to get rid of any major characters or turn them into minor characters. Even if :pom:

or

or any other characters don't appear on the site for a while, it doesn't mean they'll just fade away or anything.

Frankly, I wouldn't mind if KOT faded away for a while. He freaks me out. He has heart attacks... like hiccups. Doesn't that freak you out?

Uh... no.

Those don't freak me out. What freaks me out is the fact his heart is shaped like a ham.

Either that or a ham got in his heart somehow.

He truly is the world's unhealthiest man. And yet HE'S STILL LIVING.

That said ... with his recent appearances since the topic, I'd say that KoT is far from becoming a minor character. And given that he was NOT shown eating food in the 4Tst Annual Fall Parade, or in the Geddup Noise e-mail, I think the Brothers Chaps are diversifying his skill list a bit.

And I must say, the KoT's marching band ruled.

Umm, he's actually been in several things recently. If you were talking about Pom Pom, I'd take your side, but we are talking about the KOT.

Compared to the other characters, the KOT is fairly two-dementional. All we currently know is that he has an unhealthy love affair with food, a strange relationship with the Poopsmith, and a desire to be considered "cool" by the other characters. TBC needs to develop his character more before they throw him into new situations. Personally, I'd love to see dynamics between the KOT and other characters that normally don't interact with him, such as Homsar or Strong Sad.

Poor Pom-Pom suffers from a similar lack of character development due to his limiting bubble language.
