Despite its prevalence on the internet, bigoted language is frowned upon here.  Do not go there.

Too bad you missed this part, Pvt. Pirate.
So much for lecturing people, huh. Another nobody.
Hypocritical cherrypicking at its best.

Ok, I'm impolite, yadda yadda, IDC, stick to topic.
I already apologized for the misunderstanding ONCE, I won't do it again.

  Well,  I'm in my first 44.x fort and have put lots of bins to work, including for ammo, my hunters ARE grabbing bolts out of bins and my mechanic is grabbing arrows from bins to load the bows with in the weapon traps. I DO get a no ammo message when the hunter shoots off the last bolt and when the mechanic loads the last arrow, however I had no other ammo related jobs active at the time, so this spam may not be related to the bins being locked.
  I have NOT created a gems stockpile as of yet, though with some 200 cut gems in my workshop means I will need to do *something*.  I will likely create a 1 square dump zone 1 square away and have everything dumped to the spot.
  I have not seen any bins getting used to haul yet. (I have not had any large piles of clothes, all except one death in the fort was due to dragon fire, and there was nothing left to haul).


  Tested and working: Mechanics and hunters pulling bolts and arrows from bins.
  Untested: Crossbow squad pulling ammo from bins.
  Untested: Job cancellation spam.
  Untested: Haulers carrying bins to pick up 1 sock.

 I have seen the wheelbarrow getting used to pick up multiple food items when doing a mass (p) gathering. Untested on finished goods.

Yes. Bins are not broken. But they do intermittently stop working. If they were just "broken" it'd be simple to fix them.

The issue manifests as equipment mismatch spam.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.
