In Loving Memory

RuneHQ was more than just a website; it was part of my RuneScape journey. From quest guides and clue scrolls to discovering new things about the game, it was always there, helping make the adventure that much better.

It's incredible to see how many lives Gene and Deb touched through something they built with such passion. They may never have known just how much it meant to us, but their impact will never be forgotten.

Some chapters end, but the memories will live on forever. Farewell, RuneHQ. You'll never be forgotten.

I'll never forget hogging the family computer back in 2007 for hours to work through a quest guide on RuneHQ. Completing Monkey Madness 1 using a RuneHQ guide was one of the first major achievements of my young life and I'll always cherish it. Time flies but the memories will never fade. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Deb, and Gene for all the years of amazing memories.

This was one of the resources (alongside Sal's) that gave me the information and excitement for the game I'd played during my childhood. Though I stopped using the site, the memories of using it never left and remains part of my personal RuneScape history. This closing of a chapter can at least be known and appreciated by those who used RuneHQ and lest we forget.

I used to play Runescape often when I was younger. Some of my fondest memories growing up - both fortunately and unfortunately - were made in Gielinor. And during those times, before there Runescape Wiki became more popular, I would always come back to RuneHQ for its guides on...everything. Thank you for guiding that pre-teen along in the game.

RuneHQ was one of the OG fansites that all of us veteran players flocked to in the early days. It had, and still has, some of the best quest guides (the most pictures haha!) and a great community.

Thanks to the team for maintaining it all these years. It is definitely sad to see it go, but I understand how difficult it can be to continue a project when the founders are no longer with us.

Eternal rest grant unto Deb & Gene,
and let perpetual light shine upon them.
May they rest in peace. Amen.

Core part of my memories as a child. I still remember asking my mother to print quest guides for me at her office.

Thank you everything that you have done for the community. The impact made to so many lives can not be understated. From early questing beginnings, fan sites like RuneHQ shaped my future career and life.

Thank you for the memories.

Thankyou for everything! Whenever I found myself stuck on something, RuneHQ was my go-to place to find the answers since I was a kid. Managed to get QP cape and many more, even passed on the knowlegde or source to my surroundings!

English is not my native language, but RuneHQ sure made it easier when I was 11!

I don't know what comes after the end, but I am sure that Deb and Gene are smiling proudly at the community they formed!

Goodnight RuneHQ'ers

RUNEHQ had it all! Quests, tips, and guides. When loading runescape I would always have Runehq ready. Growing up I never really thought or thanked the creators and I apologize. Without this I wouldnt have done half of what I completed. Sorry I didnt say this sooner, but THANK YOU! THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. nothing truly dies if we do our part to remember what you gave us.

Thanks for everything and helping me through the stronghold of security when I was 10. RIP
