Earlier today I realised that when you click "convert all" option, it ignores the amount of faction you already have and your faction cap and reduces your imperial faction straight to 0. That is to say any excess faction is lost.
I think that an algorithm should be included such that the options will only convert up to the maximum available cap you have remaining, and leave the rest untouched.
Conversion of Imperial Faction needs to be fixed.

This is indeed unfortunate and it's nice of you to bring it to people's attention, but most of us cash in before it reaches the ridiculous levels where this would be a problem.
If this is a quick fix than it's /signed; but I won't ever lose a min. sleep over it.

This is easily fixed by simple arithmetic and common sense.

Sometimes you click the button accidentally when you have too much faction to convert? Its not like misclicks don't happen. What have you got to lose anyway?

my imperial cap is 140k and it can take a lot of hours of doing faction pvp to even acrude that amount since nomially you gain 5k ish imperial from jq a win, and far less if you get blown out 10-0, if you're converting to balthazar faction it's 3:1 and you really don't lose that much i turned in like 14k imperial and got 5k balth pretty much, this isn't a big deal to be honest. it's kind of a deal with it and shut up situation, i'm in a cavalon alliance and honestly never heard anyone complain about it with the conversion.

Its precisely because you have a high cap that it matters? I converted 40k of balth faction at once when my cap was only 30k

Seriously? "Herpa derp your a noob if you do this" is the best counter-arguement you people have.
This is a simple correction to a BUG in the interface.

Player error can never be fixed.
Even if they make a "fix" people will still find a way to screw it up, just like everything in every game.

Seriously? By that logic why not remove the checking when you have money and someone tries to trade you so that your gold balance goes over the 100k?

I made that mistake too. I am converting 1k at a time to prevent throwing any away. Glad someone else noticed this also.

Obvious logic error on Anets part. Expect fix sometime between now and heat death of the universe.
Yeah, lets do it for interactions with the xunlai chest as well. Item stacks too. If you try to put an 80 ecto stack on a 200 ecto stack to combine them you should just lose the extra 30 ectos because clearly you are a clueless asshole who shouldn't have their hand held by the game, amirite?

saw a banner once that read "fool-proof systems don't take into account the ingenuity of fools"
little common sense goes a long way. if this change is made then they should make one for merchants as well so you have to verify every item sold so nobody can speed click through their bags anymore and "accidently" sell those high-end weps

I'd much rather get back(have fail safe for) accidently merched goods than accidently converted/loss faction...the merching was my fault not anets....oh well
For example wars....they have sooo many weaps that not all can be equipped or put into equipment packs......so that doesnt really apply

ding, ding. winner. or do PvP and up your cap to 40k+ so when you do happen to get 120k imperial after a day of jq/fa/ab (by the way waste of time, since that's only ~8 zkeys (48k gold) and theres other ways of farming to get more than that amount)
so in turn, be a smart player please, and dont QQ because you made a mistake. use the 2 spherical organs in your head, called eyes and pay attention to your faction caps more.

Personally, I would agree that it should be the maxium faction that one is able to hold that should be converterted. On the other hand, one can chose to convert smaller amounts per exchange.
I like big caps, but this would make more sense. As for the balthazar cap, that would mean that most people are stuck at 30k. For me it would mean that my cap is even higher (210k).

What about people that are new to the game a fix would benefit them. They could convert a whole bunch faction and not even notice. Not everyone has played this game for 6 years and is an Uber pvper. So saying "a little math and not being an idiot" doesn't help anyone at all.

It should be fool-proof. A quick check before the actual faction transfer makes it fool-proof.
