Landthieves was the OG Oklahoma message board. It had a nice design, 15+ yrs of posting history.
Landthieves and ShaggyBevo (Texas one) were linked somehow. I don't remember the exact story, but it was something like a UT grad created and hosted both websites. For some reason he decided to stop hosting it or something (maybe someone else was managing it at the point). But the jist of it was that both forums just disappeared one day (this was sometime over the past 2-3 yrs.)
Both SurlyHorns and DirtBurglars were created as the replacements.
It's a shame the DirtBurglars is the replacement for OU - the original Landthieves forum was so nice. I think a lot of original OU users just ditched message boards and went Twitter only after that.
