Weird, why dont you just request troops and use them? Isnt taht half the reason for being in a clan?

I can't imagine why someone wouldn't want CC on defense. If it is well centered and filled with the right troops it can destroy an entire army in 30 seconds.
If you have ground troops like barbs in your cc and are attacked by air troops they do not come out. This is the only exception other wise there has never been a castle lock.
I want to use them for defense but not offense. I don't want to keep bugging everyone for troops (even though I donated 6k last season).
Why the hell would i lock my clan castle troops in? They pretty much are the deciding factor in almost every single defence ever, especially clan wars.
It would be nice to have this -- I can see it being useful.
A few times I've gotten a CC full of loons while my loonian army was cooking. Then I log off, got raided, and lost all my loons on defense. And loons are mostly useless on defense -- their value is really offensive.
there most certainly used to be a lock feature.
those of you with experience would know.
my question has yet to be answered.
We have never had any such feature in the Clan Castle. It has always operated the way it does now in regards to offense vs defense.
A Toggle switch to not deploy your CC troops on defense has been asked for in ideas, but I do not think it is being considered at this time.
I do not think a lock feature is needed for a CC.
If your base is big enough, the CC troops will be "un-lurable" until the walls are breached anyway. And if you use giants or barbs in your CC they wont attack when balloons and healers are the only attackers ((that doesnt happen much)) or they will only go after troops they can hit.
CC is handy for offense because if your are a lower lvl player, your clan can give you better troops to boost your attack power and help you move up in ranks.
CC as a defense is where it shines. Protected by mortars and towers, the CC troops can decimate the attacking army.
On a related note, what do you prefer to be donated to your CC?
