This is really nothing new, and I agree with Kal to an extent... although I'm rather surprised to see him posting like this. It's important to recognize that many of the ones farming samal for hours during the day aren't the same people who run to empty forts to avoid fights all night.
I really don't get too upset if we're dominating syrtis with twice their number in the field between the fort and the save, and they decide to run off to meni. The thing that bothers me is when they make one attempt, and then run to an empty fort or just sit at the save until we leave. I wasn't on for the specific situation being discussed, so I really can't say.
I do notice that syrtis tends to either take back their forts by outnumbering enemies 2 to 1, or by finding another way to force them out that doesn't require fighting. There are very few fights with syrtis (at forts) that I would call fun, whether my team is winning or not.
