thank u for the suggestion! our developers have considered it and came to conclusion that it can’t be implemented. The reason is that, first, this system might become confusing for new players.Second, more importantly, this system allows players intentionally provoke others to act in a way that the protection will be automatically disabled. And this might create negative attitude to Invasion mode.

And the pilots under station protection that are repeatedly shooting at those not under station protection are not being provocative?

Right now you can annoy someone by shooting him while being under station protection - this does not really harm anyone.
If we add something like in this suggestions, a player could start provoking someone and stop shooting before the protection is deactivated. If the other player does not know about this mechanic, he starts shooting back and disables his protection. In this case the player gets frustrated and confused.

Ah ok, I see how it could be exploited. Thanks for explaining to me.

They can’t do any harm
They can’t do any harm
They are annoying little pests though 
I changed my mind. It’s urgently needed.
Today 5 of them fired on me for 4 minutes.
Give me something, to get those pests!
It’s not revenge! It’s punishment!
If you didn’t farm “allied” pnj near the station, that wouldn’t happened… You deserve to be punished for it, not gaining rights to detroy pilots that only want to protect the pnjs…
Hello, this should really NEVER get implanted and i’m totally with the devs. Why? Only one reason. There is only one sector where i’m attacked like that when i disable my protection. Its the main stations sector… and you never stay in main stations sector more than 1minutes… time to go to a gate.
You actually can just leave the area and you won’t be attacked by this kind of player anymore.
There is only ONE real problem, is tackler with slow missiles --’’. I was in my inquisitor, fit with cargo & scanner to farm and get loot, and i got a tackler, that followed me and send me this cute missiles on me. Because i didn’t had the stations protections i get slowed when he can’t damage me, that was really boring.
(Can’t post a answer don’t know why so):
Update #koromac
Well, its affect you if you don’t have it. And when someone that have it, launch the missiles on you and you don’t have it, like it happens to me, you are slowed by the slow field.
Aura missile won’t affect Station Protection status and it would only get affected, if you were an aggressor, or without Station Protection.
Do people who disable protection actually care about being shot in the protected zones? Lol. Usually they are shooting up the cargo ships or have returned from pvp sec as a criminal. Or perhaps you chat a lot and are famous!
New players may also enjoy shooting missiles and dropping nukes on each other. Yes it may be annoying to some but bots shoot you as well and they do enough damage that you have to bother taking care of them (since you were sitting around and not escaping)
