You took my response to be a misleading and non-helpful reply, for what? The loose "The only other things that could be stopping the other dwarfs is that they are unable to find a path to the items" statement?

I did not intend to suggest your response was non-helpful; my concern was that the word "only" implied that you had provided an exhaustive list of all possibilities. Since OP's problem had already been identified as a wheelbarrow issue, I thought it would be mildly-humorous to mention some long-shot "hauling problem" scenarios that you hadn't included. I was not seriously suggesting that OP's dwarves were suffering from a grasp-targeted syndrome, but rather illustrating that with the complexity of Dwarf Fortress a truly comprehensive list of hauling problems is nearly impossible to complete. I apologize for any misunderstanding.

There was a dwarf that was working the stockpile and a bunch of others that were idling. There were no other options other than the wheelbarrow setting.. unless the other dwarfs were separated from the stockpile, possibly by that moat. I do understand how complex DF is... or rather, I understand how complex it is in relation to all other computer games and most simulation software.
