Awww. I’m famous now? Man, I used to be a nobody around here.
As for this conversation, I agree with both Nightlighter and Treng. Narratively, the Night Elves won a lot in Cataclysm. But Blizzard also puts no Night Elf victories representatively in-game, but does show Night Elf losses. Though this still doesn’t change the story that the Night Elves won.
I do not consider myself uninformed.
Alliance side of the Darkshore Warfront introductory questing Belmont is captured, and then in the Horde Warfront proper Belmont is freed. Belmont doesn’t show up in the Alliance version of the Darkshore Warfront proper at all. Nor does he show up on Darkshore when the Alliance is holding it for world quests. This implies to me that the Horde version of the Darkshore Warfront happens directly after the introductory questing - this would also explain how the Alliance had held Bashal’Aran in the introductory questing, but when the Alliance does the Darkshore Warfront proper the Horde is holding it. And that any cycling of the Darkshore Warfront is just for gameplay purposes. Additionally:
Of course, one can assume instead that Belmont is just getting himself captured over and over again off-screen and the Night Elves are able to cleanse Ivus of the blight over and over again as many times as the Horde plagues him with it. But over all that just looks like gameplay to me.
