2026 took everytbing from us

RuneHQ is the first video game tips website I ever visited and was foundational to my childhood. It will be missed!

Blessings. Much respect thanks for being here for us. <3.

RuneHQ was my preferred guide site as a kid. Though it may have been overshadowed by the wiki in recent times, it will always have a fond place in my heart. Thank you Deb and Gene for supporting a place where the community can learn and share information, rest in peace. RuneHQ may be gone soon, but it won't be forgotten.

Runehq was my go to site for many years. For years whenever I was stuck in the game,I'd give runehq a visit and it would usually have the answers I need,or am looking for. It's sad that this website is being discontinued after almost 30 year's, it's almost as if a small part of me will die as well when the site goes down.

I used RuneHQ religiously starting in 2006. It allowed me as an underaged Scaper to understand and navigate the world of Gielinor when I couldn’t figure things out for myself (which was common)

Becoming a more competent Scaler helped me connect to my older brother who showed me the game in the first place, too. We are still close despite living thousands of miles apart and RuneHQ was the catalyst for this

I’ll never forget how much it helped me in my journey. Thanks RuneHQ!

The end of an era, I was a crewbie on Tip.it, and a very active member of the community.

I was always amazed by the quality of the guides, community and it's very sad to see RuneHQ go.

Hopefully it can be archived somehow, RIP to Deb and Gene, I never met you but you helped so many players in RuneScapes golden age.

I was introduced to the site by a former neighbor and still hella chill buddy of mine when I was getting confused over... Haunted Mine, I think? The guides here gave me a good push towards getting some must-have mid-game milestones in the early 2010's.

At the same time though, I saw most of the RS community as trolls, scammers, and bots. And my anti-social tendencies, combined with my mom instilling a lot of internet paranoia unto me, didn't quite help the matter. But then clans became a thing and I was like "Hey, I know that site!" and joined. Met some of the coolest internet buddies I still chat with here and there like Im Your Cat, James Rhodes, High Vortex, Sliver, Rednar, Bertie, and much more. Been there for the good, some of the bad, and the weird like when Double D Edd got mad that I broke the calculator in IRC by dividing by zero.

They say we can't have nice things, but there are at least good things, but unfortunately, they all must come to an end.

I don't know what comes after the end, but I hope Gene and Deb are smiling more with every goofy joke we crack left and right.

Goodnight, RuneHQ'ers.

This was my go site in my early years of gameplay.
Many an hour was spent here digging for info.
All good things must come to an end
