Playing living world 2 from the start
Unfortunately, you needed to log in during the two weeks that each new chapter of the LS Season 2 storyline was introduced. This was explained in great detail on the website. The fact that your PC was out of commission is a bummer, but not really anything that Arenanet needs to deal with.
The fact that you can go back and pay a small fee for those parts that you missed is a gigantic improvement over LS 1, where you missed it completely if you weren’t on at least weekly.
It sucks, I know, but you’re kinda out of luck here. A bit like being sick when the concert you wanted to go to is in town. You can’t blame the concert promoters for “penalizing” you because you got sick.

If you want to see the story without the rewards you can always go into the instance with a friend, but again, you wont get anything for it (other then mob drops).
I’m sorry for the luck on that.
Hmm, I see.. Well, It is a bummer then :/
Thanks for the answer btw. Much appreciated.
