This was a problem they have since addressed by including the story journal, so that all future content releases will be re-playable if players want to do them again. But that doesn't mean that content didn't exist for players who were actively playing when they occurred.
I think the problem, and I use the word problem very loosely because I actually love GW2 to death, is that we love these event updates, but we want the more substantive additions, as well. It's a lot to ask for, I know, but that's what I hear a lot of people clamoring for - a full-blown expansion. Hell, I'd love it myself; I'm trying to get back into the game now that I have some more free time in a casual capacity. However, I'm looking at starting a new class or jumping right into PvP/WvW because I don't really have much to do with my level 80s at this point in terms of gear or anything else.
It's not the be all end all MMO, but it's great at what it does - the unique WvW, fun as hell leveling, solid structured PvP, and the classes are very well realized.
