I haven't done this quest in awhile, so I'm not entirely sure what purpose the 8+ entrances to this QA serve.
I do know that it's kind of an eyesore seeing a massive amount of holes around this gate, and would personally like to see the area cleaned up a bit.
My complaint is mostly based on the cosmetics of the area, though, so if they are pertinant in some way to the quest then I suppose they are worth keeping.

Most holes don't have any relevance to the QA - I think it's mainly a way to get people into searching every single hole before finding the correct one. I'll admit I'd rather see them cut down a bit for myself, if not simply removing the ... (www.dictionary.com) clickability from several.

Couldn't we have some kind of random thing in the holes, Monsters Rothe, random things that would be interesting.

The holes are "filled in", except for one. And since they're kobolds, there's probably a fake bottom in the pit that leads to a door or something. Trappy little bastards. (Yes, trappy. Screw dictionary.com)
I agree with Obedience, just making them non-glowy-on-touch would be great.

I LIKE them.
I think its neat that you have to search through all the holes, it had a purpose originally--the quest giver kept filling the holes in and so you had to go find the new one.
I just don't think that part is communicated now.

Every time you click on one, a mob of swarmers should jump out and bite you. Or dire moles.

Nah. I like them. The tabbed glowy ness can be irksome >_> But we cant complain much about that one- we push the stupid button. Ahem.
I like looking for the right hole.

I'd love to see the entrance to the QA randomized.

:?
If the QA entrance isn't randomized, I'm not sure what point all the fake entrances are serving. Especially if, from my understanding of previous responses in this thread, all you get from clicking on them is, "This hole has been recently filled in," rather than any challenge and possible reward.

Some players make a direct bee-line to the right one, and others search around. For new players who've never done the quest before, it can be fun to track down the right one.

This would be really cool. Without it, I maintain that it's simply agitating.

It's been discussed before, but I believe the general consensus was that it would be particularly difficult to do.

Well, the hole used now could be changed and occasionally changed to a different hole to keep us on our toes.
Another idea would be all the holes enter the QA, but in a different spot. Doing this would probably need a total revamp of the QA so you can have series of tunnels leading to different chambers instead of a seemingly 1 path with a few forks.

I never noticed that it was the same each time <_<;;

...It's the same each time and yes, those holes outta have something in them, like corpses.
