Q: Why is it that in the Caverns of Time instance. Where Medivh opens the dark portal. The area looks lush and green yet when you go to Blasted Lands its all barren and desert with a huge hole in the ground with a portal? Did the portal up and move?
Q: From watching the Ulduar trailer: Why is it that Bran Bronzebeard was able to get close to Yogg-Saron. But when the players tries we have to fight all the way to Yogg-Saron. If Bran already did the work for us, why cant we just kill a boss or two and kill Yogg-Saron? Unless the Raid encounter. No comments about "dude, maybe they respawned LOL"
Q: The instance of Culling of Stratholme in helping arthas kill innocent people. Who are infected with the plague. Why can't we kill Arthas and save ourselves the headache of a lich king and death knight story line? I mean its like going back in history and trying to stop hitler before he commits his crimes. Lordearon would maybe still be standing and no undead players and Blood Elf players. Since if there was no Arthas = no destruction of Blood Elf City. Silvanas would be still alive with Kael-thas. Should we let the infinite dragon flight have this one?

A: The portal was moved. The Black Morass is now the Swamp of Sorrows, I believe, judging from the terrain.
A: Dunno
A: If Hitler had been killed or stopped early, WW2 may not have happened. Let's look at one possible (not necessarily probably) consequence: Japan never invades East Asia since the West isn't otherwise preoccupied with the war in Europe. Since there's no war in Asia, there's no atom bomb dropped in Japan. Japan doesn't go through its horrific post-trauma stress disorder and its amazing nation rebuilding. Japan never (or takes much longer to) becomes the technological and innovation powerhouse it is today, and without the collective PTSD of Japan's artists, we never get blessed with anime and manga as we know it today.
I know it sounds like I'm arguing that Dragonball Z was worth slaughtering millions of people in the war, but I guess the point that the Bronze Dragonflight is trying to make is: better the horrific present that we know, than a potentially more horrific present that we don't.
