TOP TOPIC
In case you missed it, the Rife community came of age on YahooGroups (e.g. Rife-List, Rife, Rifers, Electroherbalism, etc.) and now ALL YahooGroup archives (messages, files, etc.) have been removed. The Rife Forum has actively archived 70 top health-related YahooGroups and made them available for download and use on Windows computers where you can also learn where some of these groups have moved to on other platforms. Health-Related YahooGroup Archives website
In this year's Christmas Video, Peter Walker presents his second video Christmas message to the members. He discusses the history of Rife Communities that started out on OneLIST/eGroups/YahooGroups and how they were vital for the development of Rife research. Now that YahooGroups have removed their archives, this has caused many online communities to just close down while others have moved on to groups.io - However, they are enforcing rules to not discuss issues with vaccinations and that is a topic that is sometimes discussed on all alternative health platforms. This may result in the banning of many groups if they so not self censor. Peter also looks into a new project being prepared to provide an alternative location for your groups using specially converted forum software.
He also discusses some of the problems found while archiving 70 health-related YahooGroups and how he has assisted some groups that would otherwise have disappeared.
Now the Rife Forum is also in Danger due to Underfunding!
The effective loss of the Yahoo Groups, makes the Rife Forum all the more vital for the Rife Community as an uncensored and open forum. Unfortunately, only 44% of the yearly costs have been met and we urgently need to raise funds in time for yearly fees that are charged in January. We need at least $2000 in order to ensure the forum can remain online after this year. As less than half the funds we need to run the forum have come in, there are no funds left to pay important charges in January and unless new money can be raised to make up this shortfall by the end of the year, this forum and even www.rife.de and www.rifeshop.com are in danger of going offline until new funds can be raised.
Peter has worked very hard on new sources of funding, but the unexpected YahooGroup Archiving process cost a lot of time and money and so far the sales of the archives has been way below expectations. We urgently need your help to keep the Rife Forum alive in 2020, the lack of subscriptions and the archiving costs has used up all available reserves and there is nothing Peter can do to make up the shortfall in time, himself.
So if you value the Rife Forum as a reliable and uncensored resource, please help us by subscribing to the Premium Area, donating via PayPal, buying the YahooGroup archives you need, or buying something on Peter's online shop: Gadget Heaven. Use the "rifeforum" promo code on Gadget Heaven for a 10% discount (minimum order $50 for orders until the end of the year.)
If you cannot donate anything, you can still help us by telling your friends about the Rife Forum, Gadget Heaven and the YahooGroup archives on social media. Encourage your friends to visit and join.
There are three ways of donating using PayPal or credit card.
#1 - Donating on the Rife Forum for Premium Area access.
The first method applies to registered members of the Rife Forum who can simply donate using the standard donation system. As a reward, you will be given access to the Premium Area on the Rife Forum which provides access to additional videos, background information, etc. You can pay via PayPal or Credit Card and your access to the Premium Area is automatically applied and the donation bar updates automatically.
#2 - Donating on PayPal Directly
If you simply just want to donate to help the Rife Forum and this archive alive, and do not care about any premium access or downloadable archives, then you can simply donate any sum via PayPal by visiting this page: https://www.paypal.me/rifeforum - The donation bar will be updated manually in this case.
#3 - Donating on groups.rifeforum.com for Windows compatible YahooGroup Digital Downloads
After archiving 70 health-related YahooGroups of use on Windows computers, those archives are available as rewards for donating to fund the Rife Forum (which includes https://groups.rifeforum.com).

Thanks again to everyone for your support. I have worked up to 20 hour days since the YahooGroup announcement in October to save as many of the YahooGroups that are important for us as possible.
Now I need some help from you guys to make sure I can keep on providing this service to you all.
Thanks a lot for your support
With my best festive wishes

Thanks Peter,
Sorry to bother to your. I got lyme disease and want to get better and I'm researching with rife machine to get in the future. I'm also curious about the book you translated into English. Do you by any chance have an link to it? I wanna donate to the Rife forum and I want to buy a pack and use the software that comes with it. However my brainfog gives me a hard time realizing this. I live near Germany a 2 hours drive from Cologne. Is it possible to meet up and that you can help me with it?
Kind Regards,
Ralph van Barrelo

Hi Ralph,
The book is due to be published in the first quarter of 2020. If you can read German, the original German version is available here: https://www.amazon.de/dp/3843412812/
The doctor in question is based in Bingen, Germany.

Thank you Peter for saving all that valuable information. I think you saw what needed to be done and took the bull by the horns and did it well.
I see people are starting to step up and fund the forum. I certainly hope, many more will also do so. I am always the procrastinator and don't make the money I used to, but did manage a donation at the last minute as usual.
I hope everyone has a great new year and what better way to start it out than to support one of the last bastions of valuable health information uncensored.
It is personally embarrassing and angering me to my core that in the U.S. we now are censored more than many other countries regarding not just health information but any unpopular point of view. Welcome to 1984 George Orwell's depiction of the future. We have our Ministry of Truth in real time in the U.S.
Sorry for that somewhat depressing thought, but this political correctness and loss of freedoms is a real and present danger. We need to fight every way possible to preserve our freedoms. Another good new years goal.
Support the Rife Forum and make wave about our loss of freedoms in the U.S.
Dan

Hi Peter,
Thanks so much for your efforts. There is a good exchange of information here on Rife Forum. I appreciate how much work goes into this, and what is involved. I am the founder of a non-profit organization, which I was CEO for 30 years. It grew into international, and the list of work became astronomical. It is now in the hands of others, and I'm thankful to be retired.

Thanks for all your good wishes. I am already working on the next stage - an alternative to groups.io where the groups we have already backed up can have their archives fully restored online. That project is expected to go live by February.
Basically, we have found a way of restoring our group archives into phpBB based forums - that is all messages, members and files are all available online again and the group can live on, on our new platform.
Here is a screenshot from our test group that will be the first to migrate to our new platform. That large group had lost everything due to inaction and our backups are resurrecting their group.
I am working with industry experts on this new project...
More details later ...

Re: Urgent, YahooGroups are dead, Now the Rife Forum Needs Your Help to Survive!
Hi Peter, I'm in the middle of a Digital Marketing course and am wondering how we can use some of what I've learned to help drive more knowledge about frequencies, improved innovation in digital communities, and using all of our new digital platforms? I don't want to lose all what we have here but wondering if there has been an effort to strategize on communications for next 3-5 years? How to market, bring on more administrators, use updated technology, etc.? Should we consider building a governance group with your leadership? Just some thoughts but I know all of our time and resources (money) are limited. I've only participated minimally so realize that there are many more people with much more experience than I have in this topic. But, maybe I can help with a strategy for future. Debi

That was the point of translating it, but that is in the hands of the publishers. My responsibility ended with the translation. Last I heard, was they are planning to publish the book in the first quarter of 2020.
