What's your policy fleeing on random encounters?
In which cases is morally acceptable to escape a fight?
Do boss fights become too easy if you never escape random encounters, because you are too leveled up for the boss?
Does the game become more boring if you escape from fights frequently?

I kinda hate random encounters when I'm 3 steps away from the exit of a dungeon and I get killed by some random low-level living kettle, cause my hp is low...

if you've been through that dungeon/area and already killed the boss/got all the items and just want to get the hell out of the dungeon, then running away is alright in my standards.

For me, pretty much never. I guess it depends what mechanisms the game has to avoid random encounters (repels, phantom rings, etc.) if you have a reason to.
I only flee if im in a place that the enimies will kick my ass automatically, or if im about to die and I haven't saved in awhile.

If you are the kind of meek scum that runs all the time, you are not a good human being and you need to take yoga or new age classes to develop your spirit in the most holistic way possible. Then you won't run, you will be at peace with whatever comes along.
If you are a person of honor you never run from random encounters, period. There's just too much at stake. The wise ones among you know what I'm talking about.

If you're doing a speed run, fleeing from pointless battles is a given.

It depends on the game, but I almost always prefer to keep my integrity and stay to fight.

I flee from random battles if it's pointless and if it'll only give crap exp and goodies.
