The game is still changing a lot, and you have to remember a lot of users are not playing as much, because school has started back up.
I think patience is the word that should be used here, and giving up won't solve a thing.

I have to agree with bigjim. Tougher forts have changed the dynamics of the game. At first, with the low week night population on Horus, it was difficult to tell if it was for the better or worse.
But on the weekends, when there is alot of people on, it does create much longer battles around the forts. When Alsius attacked Agg tonight with Ignis defending, we started out with 5-6 people. Over the course of the battle, another 4-5 people joined us.
After the battle was over, we then had a zerg to take on the road through the other realms
Strategically, it also makes the war zone a more static place, with the forts not changing hands as much. It also means that taking a fort in an enemy realm is a greater strategic advantage because you will probably hold on to it for longer. Hopefully this will also help concentrate people for more battles.
When server population is low, it does mean that the war zone is more for hunting. But when the population is there, it can be lots of fun.
