Oh, OK that explains it, I wasn't even looking at ranks...thanks! Definitely, lets keep it the way it is. I wasn't looking at doing any unnecessary deleting..just removing posts which were multiple postings etc (without lowering someone's score).
note to jackfree: I am the President Plus of the hubs I was looking at but as Paul explains, its only a certain level of members who's message we can delete. That makes sense.
