Clays are broken.  They kill the clayed and the clayer   

Not broken....I think someone somewhere has a dislike for them and is discouraging their use...

Then the same setup should go to Nade's & nade launchers?   

Well by that logic, the same should happen with knives and shottys - i hate them too!   

why knive and shooty?  they cant be ramdomly spred out

I don't know if it is a glitch or deliberate, but it does seem a bit unfair to remove one perk.  Not all players are fast enough or have great reflexes to enable a sustained run and gun game style.  So camping with a sniper on a rooftop is an accepted style, so long as its not spawn camping.  And clays are an accepted part of this mode.  Sure its annoying but its also annoying being tubed, naded, stunned, knifed.  And once you trigger a clay you usually know where your target is hiding. 

Just my two cents, but by removing the perk you seem to be forcing everyone to the same style.

Hi all, No name here.
I take the time to register to the forum to say something about the clay issues as playing mainly as sniper, clay are crucial part of my strategy.
I play only on this server form some years.
Yesterday, Fh Mits online, clays come back to works properly , I notice because Mits was using it.  I asked and Mits answered yes clay issues solved and clay back in use normally. I thought that was a nice news so I gone out form the game, I put clays in my preset again and back in the game, after a  while FH spankeem online, clays doesn't  work again. I asked and spankeem reply Maibe "someone" dosent like clay, and "did you read the forum". Yes I read the forum but.... IN the forum there  no one explaining only people asking with NO response at all. (se. also what wrote Gunny in the Fh board).

is this a joke?  clay working or not its in the hand of the whim of the FH member online in that moment? or only of some FH members? I can say all sems a very childish behavior.
Whould be a lot better that "someone" who takes this decision not act as coward: come here and explain  the reasons of this decision. There are also Fh member above asking about it, so not a deciso taken by the group. All sems not nice for server , not nice for users of the server, and not a good way to manage a community in my option.

Rules does not say clay not allowed.

please explain

I did a new try today and clays worked fine for me

Ok last try on this server.
Clay still not working, as you know, Or maybe working only for you.

goodbye

If you are trying to send away people for server you are going to be successuful.

too difficult to explain what's  exactly the problem with with clays? and what means "someone " don't like clays

They half work.  Will kill a player of other team, but not your team.  Broken. 
Tubes kill both teams.  So change your clay to tubes.

As of right now. My clays kill only me. All inquiries about said clay hack has been stonewalled.

i find it insane that everyone talks about clays are broken yet no one from FH clan mgt will admit it is broken. on purpose,, your alienating your own clannies on what is going on,, ever heard the tell the truth,,, truth is being honest.. if you dont like clays and have banned it .. just say it,,, its not a mystery.. im fine with it ,, but im not fine with the oh clays are broken somehow... i go to any other server and they work fine..... literally be truthful...... former admin here.. deleting my post also shows how petty you are.,.... just saying people are not stupid...if you dont like clays,, say it ban it.. its fine... this charade has gone on long enough, this server has been great for many years.. dishonesty will be its downfall.. mark my words, dishonesty will be the downfall of this server mark my words,, dont screw up a great thing

Hey DD,

While there was a period of time where clay mechanics were altered, it has now been well over a month since the perk was removed completely. There should be no mystery at this point concerning clays; they are not selectable by design, just as marty and last stand are not selectable. In short, the change was made to increase player engagements on the server as well as removing a problematic weapon in regard to spawn trolling.

Apologies for what seemed like a lack of transparency, but it took some time to test changes before we could come to any concrete conclusions.

See you on the server, DD
