In Loving Memory

Thank you for all the memories and may your legacy live on forever Deb and Gene

RuneHQ wasn't just a site it was home like you said.

I recently returned to Runescape after being away for nearly 20 years. It's been a magical and nostalgic experience, getting to relive this game with my sister. Almost immediately I came back to RuneHQ and it brought back so many memories of staying up late into the night on some ridiculous rune essence grind, flipping between calculators counting the hours to get my skills high enough.

RuneHQ taught me the game. I'm sure every free-to-play quest, every part I built on my house, and every skill I trained was influenced by what I read here. It's sad to see it go, but so special to read the impact it had on so many people.

Rest in peace and much love,

One of my RuneScape memory as child was this place!

Opening this website brought me back to my childhood. Running home from school with my best friend so we can try Monkey madness again with the help of the QuestGuides! After many hours of bad English reading comprehension and many trials and errors we finally made it!

We were hyped for the pictures in the guide to help us understand the objectives. RuneHQ was like a second home to me. helped me navigate a complex game with my friends.

Those early memories have now to this day inspired me to me a wiki contributor. fixing minor mistakes and adding some niche information. I cant express how much RuneHQ meant to me when I grew up and how it has shaped values when it comes to online community. If I am able to have a sliver of the impact RuneHQ had. I would be fulfilled with my life.

You have carried me through all stages of Runescape life. from Romeo and Juliet and Dragon Slayer all the way through Fremmenik trails and Monkey madness

From the bottom of my heart Thank you!

This was my go to website for many years from the mid 2000s until Eoc times. The way the quest guides and other walkthroughs were written was better for me than any other and the npc/item database was the best of its kind in those times for me. While I wasn't involved in the community around this website and the fantastic people who have built and maintained it for all these years, it was always my home for Runescape information. I'm saddened to hear of the loss of this community and its founders, while they can't see the words I'm typing or the memories in my heart I hope some part of them understood the impact this Information and community hub has had on the many players and people who have come in contact with them over the last 20 odd years.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to all who made this website and community what it is.

Most of all, Thank you Gene and Deb. May they rest in piece.

Nothing will ever bring back the joy I felt going through all the guides as a kid, thank you guys.

Thank you for all of your hard work keeping this site up all these years - I definitely dropped in here more than a few times when I needed help.

Thank you

HQ helped me a lot back in the days, thanks for everything!

Thank you for the help over all these years. Hoping there is a way we can archive this site or Jagex create and in game memorial for Deb and Gene.

Used HQ very often since back in 2005 for quests mostly
