why i cant convert my maps?

I paid more than $1000 (including other accounts) in this game. But this made me feel so bad and made me feel it doesn't worth me spending so much money on this game.

If it is possible, I rather refund all my money and quit this game forever.
It take me 8 hours and more than 40,000 clics to get rid of 9,000 maps and convert to keep 4,500 more.

Clic stash... clic 60 maps... clic vendor... convert 60 maps... clic vendor... 3-1 60 maps... clic vendor... 3-1 20 maps... clic vendor... etc

Averaging 3.5 clic per map you want to get rid of.

It's an injury-inducing problem for the game.

Hey...as Chris said, "there is too much clicking in PoE". Let's be thankful that Flasks were nerfed... xD

bad news for you ... i asked for an ETA

Hey there,

Thanks for getting back to us.

I'm afraid this is not something we are able to speculate on, as our team are currently still investigating issues around map conversions. I apologise again for any inconvenience that may be caused by this.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us again.

Kind regards,
Rory

Great, instead of texting to us in this thread "Guys, don't worry, we are researching the problems associated with map conversion", they just remain silent.
GL guys, until they fix this issue i will go to Diablo II
Vendor gives the following for the 25 t16 maps from Expedition series....

Alleyways > Fields
chateau > fields
foundry > fields
lava chamber > fields
lava lake > fields
mineral pools > fields

shore > fields

ashen wood > summit
courtyard > summit
mud geyser > summit
plateau > summit
shrine > summit
vault > summit

city square > arachnid nest
coves > arachnid nest
crimson temple > arachnid nest
crystal ore > arachnid nest
terrace > arachnid nest
tower > arachnid nest

jungle valley > alleyways
cells > alleyways
courthouse > alleyways
residence > alleyways

Kinda fucking pointless to go vendor route.
You end up with hundreds of the same maps, and zero of others.
With zero ability to store them.
I was actually able to convert my maps. The solution is quite easy but time consuming.
First i searched for a list with the natural tiers of all maps in 3.16
There is for example just a single T10 map and four T11 maps.
Then I checked which maps the vendors give me for my old maps.
Example:
All old T10 maps are vendored to a Crimson Township. So I removed all but 72 T10 maps from my stash.
The T11 maps are changed to four maps:
Forking River, Armoury, Temple and Dark Forest
The vendors give me
Temple Maps for Academy, Arena, Arid Lake, ...
Dark Forest Maps for Ashen Wood, Basilica, ...
etc.
I kept all maps in my tab that sum up to 72 or lower for each of the new maps that the vendors would give me. Then I removed all the excess from my stash tab.
Luckily I only had to do this for red tier maps. It took me about 2 hours but afterwards the convert button worked! (though slowly)

Then something strange happened.

I expected to only receive 3.16 maps from the natural tier since the 72 was the limiting factor here. So only four different T11 maps (Forking River, Armoury, Temple and Dark Forest). But instead I got about 48 different, well distributed maps. I had like 55 different maps before. WTF? Why is everything limited to 72 when it gets redistributed afterwards?!

Well, I am a software developer. When I use websites or software, the litte developer in my head always tries to analyze strange behavior. And this really looks like a buggy converter that never got a code review. I really hope that GGG is putting a bit more devotion to the core engine of the game.
