But this is about a new feature, just released!
Raid messages are hard. Making them personal to each raid is near impossible.
Not anymore.
A simple command can generate a tailored message for your raid.…
1 more week. 415+ users, nearly 6600 shoutouts made. 😲
Changes:

& a few boring but important changes behind the scenes.
Still more to come!👀

I'm thinking a lot of them might be doing this to just "season" phone numbers they want to use for actual spam later. By getting more real interactions from people in a big first wave, they get past spam blockers and come off as legit.
Just my guess though, not sure

You probably think of the clever chatbot when you think of FrostyTools.
