In a devastating blow to the local posting economy, WTFDetroit is sad to announce that they've had to let the following posters go:

This shocking announcement comes fast on the heels of numerous other cutbacks at WTFDetroit. Many posters have complained of trouble cashing in their Alpacas out of the Sportsbook account and most of the front page writers haven't been payed in months. "With Michigan's economy in general in trouble, the Google Ads just aren't bringing in what they used to," said evil WTFDetroit owner Glenn Danzig.
Many of the posters we interviewed expressed a growing fear that they too could soon lose their posting accounts.
"I never thought I'd have to worry about things like this but if even Fred Stephens is losing his account, is anybody safe?" said frequent poster MoTown, spotted browsing WTF on his laptop at the local Starbucks.
"Things are bad all over," said Bukdow, who apparently is a Michigan fan based on his avatar, "Hell, Harper's had to cut out their forums altogether, and Smithsonian is threatening to do the same. If I lose WTFDetroit, I may have nothing left but wedgeandmaul.com!"
Speaking on the condition of anonymity, one poster didn't know what he'd do without WTFDetroit. We'll call him "Rekyl" to protect his identity. "Living in Cleveland, WTFDetroit is THE place I come to find out all the news about my divisional rival Detroit teams."
An angry and visibly shaken Wilfredo Ledezma had this to say about his recent dismissal: "It's gotta be the fucking Chaldeans fault! They ruin everything. Now I'm not saying I would go and kill Glenn myself, but let's just say that if someone were to do it, I wouldn't be too upset about it."
