Recently there was a day where AV did not have a minimum requirement for players, and the game continued without ending with about 15 players on each side. As someone who does not often play during the servers peak hours, this was helpful as it allowed me to gain some reputation and honor, even if we were not able to progress through the PvE aspect of the BG. Perhaps you would consider reducing the minimum players required for an AV to start, and end prematurely, as it would help the minority of the population that does not play during times when there are enough other players for a full group.
