Guild Wars 2

So i just finished my Personal Story on my Guardian alt character. I have both the new episodes unlocked and i expected the first one to be the one that went active after i defeated Zaithan, but it was the second one that activated. Now in general this isn’t a problem as ofc i can just activate the first episode and do that first.
But i just wanted to know if this was intentional or a bug, its seemed weird from my perspective atleast that my character wanted to “skip” an episode that i had.

I imagine the current release Episode always activates first. As the program probably doesn’t check to see who downloaded/purchased what in which order. Some people might buy Episode Six, then Episode Two, then Episode Five, all while Episode Eighteen is currently active. And want to play them in a different order. Thus, easier for the program to just select the current Episode each time.
