No, the original situation that we have been discussing did not have the bases loaded. There was R3 who scored on a wild pitch which occurred on ball 4. Nobody was forced. The BR never got to 1st base, but joined his teammates near the foul line for a group hug. Abandoment was not the issue, but when to call desertion was. At what point do you just say "later" and walk off the field, or declare the BR out for desertion, has been the point of the discussion.
The bases are loaded in WWTB's situation above, but not prior to his example.
