runehq est car le monde qui s occupait de runehq n´etait pas capable de paier 210$US par mois pour grader l autre site ouvert. La solution qu il on trouver pour reste ouvert aussi longtemps ( car au debut sa devait fermer a mois de decembre) etait que le monde fasse des dons et que le monde click sur les annonce du site. Mais sa la pas durer longtemps. Aussi le travail sur le site ne les amusait plus comme avant. En gros sa les fesait chier de s occuper de runhq.
Donc si vous vouler des reference, amuser vous a lire les new du site. Comme je suis un gentil petit gracons, j ai resorti les news qui parle des difficulter de runehq.
ok j aurai du les mettre dans un orde different ma se me tente pas de changer

Sorry to say folks, but the time for Runehq has ended.
We are sorry to do this but RuneHQ is shutting down effective immeadiately.
The site has turned into a constant source of stress and frustration for us. It has gotten too big and we cannot seem to find adequate help to maintain it. This site has caused way too many fights and problems for us and we need to step away and take a break. If someone is interested in taking over the management and bills for the site, I may be willing to discuss this and let someone else take over. The server costs $210.00 per month. The ads and donations do pay for most of this so far but you cannot count on that and must be willing to pay the difference or all of this cost. I will not however discuss this with anyone under 18 years of age! Also, this domain will always be owned by us because we use it as our primary email addresses and even though we don´t want to manage the site, we would still like to be involved if someone else is interested in taking over the management.
Donations have trailed off and our ad clicks were down to 2 or 3 a day and not bringing in enough revenue to pay for the site fully. This may have made it hard on us to continue funding the site in the future and we are kinda tight on funds and cannot absorb the differences if there is a need. We would like to thank those that have donated, but money is NOT the reason we are shutting down the site. It is only a small factor in our decision. Continued dontations will NOT bring the site back. The server is currently payed for until April 1st and we have enough donations since the shutdown to pay for one more month, so if someone takes over, there would not be a server payment needed until May 1st.
PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL ME ABOUT FREE SERVERS OR WEB HOSTING! This site can NOT run off a free hosting account, we get too much traffic and require too many resources to run this site for those to work. Again, it is not about Money, or Bandwidth or the server. The main reason for this shutdown is the constant stress and turmoil caused by trying to get things done correctly and not having adequate good help to accomplis this.
We hope you all the best and hope you all luck with your Runescape endevors. We hope you find a good place to call home.
It was fun while it lasted, but this is the end for RuneHQ for Weezy and I.

First of all, thanks everyone for the support and donations. This will help for the next few months’ bills. This does not mean however the site is going to stay around forever. We have gotten too big and this site is costing too much for us to support on our own for a consistent amount of time. We cannot and will not keep the site up without your continued support.
With that being said, PLEASE, PLEASE, DO NOT EMAIL US or POST on the FORUM YOUR SUPPORT IDEAS OR HOSTING COMPANIES! Sorry, but at least 80-90 % of you have no clue what it takes to host this site. We cannot run on cheap servers and free web hosting. The server requirements of this site dictate a server that is more expensive and with better hardware than we currently have but we can´t afford it. You are only showing your intelligence and not helping by sending us bogus hosting companies that offer so called UNLIMITED anything, there is no such thing! We know what we are doing and your so called cheap hosting company is a crock of something we won´t discuss.
Also, for those asking if you can take our guides and host them elsewhere, the answer is NO!, this is a copyright violation and we will not tolerate it. The content of this site is copyrighted by Jagex and RuneHQ and we will not allow it to be copied without our permission, and that permission has NEVER been granted to anyone, nor will it ever be.
In conclusion, RuneHQ is not shutting down, at least not for the moment, but this is dependent on you all, as long as we get support from you folks to help offset the costs of the site, then we will stay around, when the funds dry up, and stop coming in, the site will cease to exist. So as you see, if you want RuneHQ to stay online forever, then you are the one that is in control of that, not us. We hate asking for money, it goes against our principles. We funded this site for a year now out of our own pocket, and we would like to continue that, but the site has just gotten too big and is using too much resources for us to be able to realistically afford it on our own. We do ask and require that anyone under the age of 18 get your parents permission PRIOR to donating. Thanks

First off, let me say thanks to a wonderful community we have here. I have received tons of email offering to help. We have also received some more donations and a few emails of people offering support. We have also seen tons of emails asking us to stay up and telling us how much they love the site.
It makes me feel all warm inside knowing how much people love this site and want it to stay around. We will try our best to not let you folks down. Weezy and I are playing Runescape a lot more now than we have in the recent past and we are trying to get back into the site a little more, but we still don´t come on as much as we should or need to to make sure things are ran the way we like. The staff here is on autopilot and most of the admins and mods we have left are doing a bang up job at keeping things going, but they need more help than we are giving them.
If you have emailed me offering support either coding or financially, don´t worry, I will eventually get back to everyone when I have time. Like I said I have tons of emails, so it may take me a few days to weed through them all. Especially since I work third ( graveyard) shift and have a lot going on at the moment. If you don´t hear from me by the end of next week, then please don´t hesitate to email us again.

We have had enough support from users to keep the website open for 2 more months, so we have removed the ads.
Stormy and I have decided that December will be our last month running RuneHQ. We have enjoyed the past year as we love helping as many people as we can, unfortunately we could never find enough help to keep the site updated the way we would like and have also lost interest in running the site due to other interests.
We are not selling the site and will keep the domain. Down the road if we can save up enough money to re-open the site and keep it going for months, we may do so.
We will still be holding the party this Saturday to celebrate the birthday of RuneHQ and we hope to see lots of you there. Thank you for your support and dedication to help keep RuneHQ one of the top Runescape help sites out there.
Lets make the best of these last 2 months!
