Very difficult to run an overseas property portal if the people involved don't have some knowledge of the industry, wouldn't make for much of a portal I'd imagine.
We've never denied the connection with Ray. He has no input into the everyday running of the site, in fact he has never had any nor has he ever looked for any. That wasn't his remit when we took him on board, he was exclusively involved in the marketing side (as discussed previously, which all of this has been, ad-infinitum).
I've asked Dubchopper publicly and in a PM to disclose his/her involvement with Larionovo, but he/she's refused point blank. Just responds with questions. At least our connection is out in the open.
