Please put a little more detail into your post/question.

Is it Kurzick/Luxon/Balthazar faction?

Where is it happening? (Fort Aspenwood, RA, HA, Zaishen Challenge etc.)

Well, my best guess is that you are at the Zaishen Challenge or Zaishen Elite.

At these places you can earn only a certain amount of Faction. Like, you cna only get 1,000 faction from Challenge everyday. In the Elite, its 3,000.

Or, it could just be a bug.

2000 max from npc zaishen arenas. The thing about elite is that you never zone back into town, so the game will let you surpass the 2000 limit as long as you start your run when you arent maxed out. (so if you earned 1900 in zaishen arenas, you can earn more than 100 more if your 1 run lasts that long.)

This is no big deal, but also involved Faction and puzzles me: I recently switched from a Kurzik guild to a Luxon one, so I went to HZH and traded my 10,000 Kurz faction for amber. I figured that would make me appear "Luxon" to traders since I had 250 Luxon from one of my chars doing an early mission. After trading all my Kurz faction, though, that 250 Luxon disappeared as well. My 6K or so Balthazar faction was fortunately unaffected. Again no big deal, but I wonder why it happened...

When you exchange Kurzick or Luxon faction you lose up to 1,000 faction from the other side. There's a message telling you of this, something about how this display of loyalty to 'X' side has cost you faction from 'Y' side.
