Hydrasaur wrote The Curse hasn't been broken yet, some of them simply had their memories returned, such as Emma remembering her (very short) life in the enchanted forest, or Zelena taking a memory potion. Clearly, the memory effects of the curse can be broken or reversed without breaking the curse. Going chronologically, the show is currently in the Third Curse, So we'd be using "Before Third Curse" for the camelot events, Which I think should start with Emma arriving in the Enchanted Forest after becoming the Dark One, and "During Third Curse" For the events currently being experienced in Storybrooke. When the Curse is broken, which would likely require True Love's Kiss (likely done by either Emma and Hook or Gold and Belle), as with the previous Curses, Then we will begin using "After Third Curse" for the events following that. That's my opinion on the matter. There's nothing to break now. Their memories are returned. Even if someone uses true-love-kiss, what will he/she break anyway? The turning into a tree property of the town line? As far as I know, the town line is never affected by the Curse breaking? First Curse broke, no one could leave or they'd lose their memories. Second Curse broke, no one could leave or they couldn't come back. Makes sense that even if the Third Curse is broken (which it can't be at this point, since everyone's getting their memories back so there's no need), there will still be the unfortunate side-effect of becoming part of the original forest... In the middle of the road. After the first curse was broken, they couldn't leave and lost their EF memories because Gold brought magic to Storybrooke, and the price for that was the EF memories of anyone who left. The Second Curse placed the flying monkey thing, I think. After the second curse was broken, they could leave, but they had no reason to, and this was only for a short time, before Elsa arrived, and created a wall of ice around the border, preventing them from leaving. The Snow Queen used her magic to keep the ice wall there until she died, and she also cast a curse preventing anyone who leaves from coming back. The 3rd Curse removed that, and placed the tree thing there instead. There is no reason why the Third Curse cannot be broken. You all just assume that it can't be, just because you have this idea that just because the curse was used for the purpose of transportation that the rest of the normal effects aren't in place, and as such it won't be broken. I fail to see how this random idea proves the curse cannot be broken. We have no reason to assume the canon isn't valid. I say, we go with the canon, and according to the canon, The Dark Curse is in place until broken with True Love's Kiss. So, until cannonically proven otherwise, the categories used should be "Before Third Curse" and "During Third Curse".
