Consider removing ProtectBase and installing Priorities

Hey, Why should I remove ProtectBase ? Whithout removing ProtectBase, Is it NOT proper to install Priorities?

priorities and protectbase do the same thing. One has 2 settings (0 and 1) the other has 99 settings (1-99).

The way they do things (besides that) is pretty much identical.

Therefore, you should use one or the other.
