Unfortunately, there is some evidence to suggest this is not the case. Any Blood Elf that has been regularly using the nuwell have likely been mostly cured of their addiction.
This is why I hate the end of TBC so much.
Well Males Blood Elves are eye candy, itâs hard for them to be so beautiful and cute at the same time

Blood elves didnât really rely on Fel magic to satiate their magical withdrawal, they siphoned arcane magic from living creatures, this was the source of contention between the other races, as they likened it to vampirism. Some elves did use Fel magic, like the Warlocks, but this was said to be hidden from the public as they would be appalled to learn that any of their people would feed on such a corruptive source of magic.
The green crystals were designed and intended to power their structures, and constructs since they were previously powered by the destroyed Sunwell. Once the Sunwell was restored however, these crystals were redundant, as was any reliance on the fel.

then why tf did we feed you guys a naaru?
waste of a perfectly good windchime.
I mean⌠elves can never be cool. But it made more sense for edgy vampiric elves to be on the horde than non-edgy light worshipping elves.

Later is now.
Oh yeah!
Made my first blood elf recently and yeah, immediately went for the classic green eyes and floating fel orbs on the mage ensemble. Their whole aesthetic and vibe was so much cooler. I loved them as a parallel when I played draenei.

May I ask what exactly you like about Runeleafâs post? Sheâs basically advocating against everything you and I advocate for.
Against the very premise of this thread.
You are obviously allowed to like what you like, Iâm just curiousâŚ
Honestly I think itâs just rushing lore in general thatâs a big lore mistake for WoW.
Take NâZoth for example
Heâs done loads of damage whilst imprisoned.
Cunning, patient & tactical âŚ
In BFA he becomes free and goes all out in a huge flex then gets knocked out in the very expansion he was released. 
Sorely disappointing.
Many others along with myself were hoping for a void expansion where CâThun, Yoggy-boi and NâZoth all emerge in a greater glory than weâve ever seen â But then they kamehamehaâd NâZoth and made a retcon statement how the rest are super-dead, despite having originally said Yogg-Saron was âjust defeated, not killedâ âŚ

I like the old Belves better too, but I was hoping to see a hipster Ariel meme in the OP.

This is only based on an interpretation of dodgy, possibly outdated lore⌠and in-game npcâs contradict this. But you and I have already discussed that thoughâŚ

âthe people of QuelâThalas sated their magical thirst for a time with demonic fel energies.â
I may have a mortgage, vet bills, and chaperone the occasional school trip, but Iâm still cool.

Is there an actual source to suppor this?
Official sources state that QuelâThalas left the Alliance because pettiness of humans over territorial claim and the lack of support from the alliance to QuelâThalas.
Nevertheless, the Alliance ultimately won the Second War, and most of the vanquished orcs were rounded up and put into internment camps. In the warâs aftermath, the cost of rebuilding was significant, particularly when added to the cost of maintaining the internment camps. Without a common enemy, the human nations began bickering over territorial claims. The high elves began to doubt the value of the Alliance. Humanity seemed to need the high elves, but had little to offer in return, especially now that many Alliance resources went toward maintaining the internment camps.
At last Anasterian rescinded the high elvesâ allegiance to the Alliance. He stated that the humansâ poor leadership had been directly responsible for the burned forests in the borderlands of QuelâThalas.
King Terenas Menethil argued that nothing of QuelâThalas would have survived if not for the hundreds of valiant humans who gave their lives to defend it. Despite his attempts at reestablishing diplomatic relations, however, the elves opted to remain independent of the crumbling Alliance. Their departure triggered the additional secession of the Gilneas and Stromgarde nations.
