In Loving Memory

Thank you for the good times in 2008. Much love, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Team,

Although I haven't played RuneScape since 2012, that was also pretty much the last year when the majority of the Lithuanian Clan Wars community decided to say farewell to RuneScape.

However, seeing the post about RuneHQ saying farewell hit quite differently.

For so many years, you guided the majority of us towards achieving what was possible in the game without unnecessary hassle. In fact, your guides saved us so much time that, if we were to add it all up, it would probably amount to several lifetimes — and quite possibly much more!

Generations of RuneScape players are truly grateful for everything you have done, and we wish you all the very best in whatever comes next.

Thank you!

P.S. Visit Lithuania — once a great RuneScape nation! :)

My father, brother and I played this game when I was growing up and my brother and I still play to this day. When I discovered RuneHQ in 2006 I knew this would help me become the RS player I am today. I printed off a map of Zanaris when my dad first told me he got there. I would link him quest guides when he needed help. This site became the cornerstone of doing research before I jumped into any new (to me) content in the game. Thank you Deb and Gene for 23 years of excellence, professionalism and the ramp to make me the players and people we are today. I will be forever grateful for the information they and all of you have posted here.

So sad to hear the news. I had a blast the few years I was here, and it started a life interest in software engineer to which is my livelihood now. Special thanks to those that used to hang out on IRC!

Can't thank you all enough for the memories you helped foster. Rest in peace Deb & Gene.

Without you I would never achieved quest cape. Thank you for everything ❤️. " Don't cry it's over, Smile because it happened "😊

This helped me so much during my early RS2 years. Sad to see RuneHQ go. Thank you so much for all of the quest guidance! RIP Deb and Gene.

RuneHQ is just as iconic as RuneScape itself is. RuneHQ helped so many players of all ages progress their accounts. Thank you for 23 years a dedication to an amazing game that is still with so many people to this very day. <3

Man, it is difficult to even describe how much this site and its history means to me. It isn't often that I find out about the passing of people I never directly knew and find it genuinely difficult to hold back the tears.

RuneHQ was more than just a part of the community, it WAS the community during the golden age of something that is still going strong to this very day.

If RS was the Sun in the golden days, RuneHQ would've been Jupiter.

RIP Deb & Gene and thank you for the memories.

I will never forget Rune HQ. It was what kept me engaged in questing back on RS2 while going through middle and high school. My high-school library printer went "buuuuuur" printing out countless pages of quest guides. I wore that thing out. Haha. This website was the foundation of my progression in a game I grew up loving and love to this day. Much love and many thanks!!
