Like each time you do something beneficial for bees, you get one level increase to max of 10. Doing something they dislike decreases level. So you can stack up a buffer against bad behavior better.

If no protection and do something rude to bees, you get wrath (current behavior)

Config the max level for protection with maximum limit be 100. Give particles if lost protection due to bad behavior.

If level 1 with 30s left, adding new level with 120s would go to level 2 with total of 150s for level 2.
