I googled on the words you suggested, and the search yielded a couple of interesting facts:

1. Forum 7 still exists, and is still linked to quite a few sites, but there's no link to get from F7 to F8. (see http://www.anyboard.net/soc/religion/rawat/A0index.html for example). This might give the impression to people trying to link to the current forum that ex-premie discussion is dried up.

2. I found this link to developments with the COG people:

Sex cult's messiah turns killer

The 'gentle' heir to a Sixties sect killed his former nanny and then himself on an Arizona desert highway

"Ricky Rodriguez grew up being hailed as a messiah. Born into the notorious sex cult The Children of God, Rodriguez was raised amid a bizarre blend of free love and apocalyptic Christianity. Its founder, David Berg, prophesied that one day Rodriguez would lead it. Yet now he is dead. Two weeks ago 'gentle, caring' Rodriguez brutally murdered a cult member, and then shot himself in the head on a lonely stretch of desert road in Arizona. The deaths have shocked America and highlighted the dark history of the cult, which has branches in Britain and across the world."
