 * Hi,
 * Why on earth would you remove the security level ?
 * It was nice to get wordfence set up fast.
 * Why is that an improvement ????
 * Thanks for your answer

 * Hello nitrix-ud,
    there was too little difference between the levels so it felt
   like that dropdown was more cosmetic than actually effective. The default settings
   Wordfence has out of the box should be fine. You can also transfer settings between
   sites if you prefer a particular setup.
 * Let me know if you want any tips for good tweaks!
