Anet hasn't said anything yet on a  stanlone exp, Anet is too busy trying to fix the sinking ship!

Standalone and Expansion are mutually exclusive terms when it comes to Guild Wars games. From the information we were given couple of years ago we "know" that we will never get a standalone campaign again, only Expansions that require original game.

Expect said Expansion roughtly a year from now give or take couple of months (again timeline that was mentioned quite some time ago, might be changed)

The game is failing by several bad choices Anet has made over the past two months and some well before release so many players quite upset. Anet led us to believe the game will be one way and now they are making the game into something completely different from what they said in Blogs and Game Con etc the list goes on. So now they are trying to fix the sinking ship that they admitted Monday that they F-ed up and we wait to see how they come through fixing things or f-ed them up more when some of things changed were not needed in the first place.

i dont think many players care so much about anet betrayal and the ascented gear matter..He might not even understand what you are talking about. In fact since he stopped playing early there is a good chance that he is actually one of those that would appreciate a (small) gear treadmill :P

I hope no expansion is released for at least a year, the games only been out 3 months and there's still loads to do.

Guild Wars campaigns were churned out every six months. However, that game *worked* before the second installment.

There probably won't be any standalones. There probably will be expansions, unless of course something goes horribly wrong. We don't have any dates for it yet, but atm they're doing their best to add new content and improve the gameplay, including everything from general bug fixes to completely new content.

Uhhh.. There was a year between Prophecies and Factions and a year between Nightfall and Eye of the North. The only time there was a six month gap was between the release of Factions and Nightfall....

There is a thread on the official forums with over 10000 posts, the most responses to any post on the official forums.  The VAST majority are unhappy with the change in direction on this game, the switch from no gear tread mill to gear tread mill.  I would guess about 90% of the posts are negative on the matter.

I see a contradiction in your claim.

The game itself has only been around a couple months. It's way too early to be talking about expansions.
