Signs get pulled down, fall down, etc. If it's not your land, it's not reasonable to assume that someone wants you on it.

You should always ask the property owner even though it’s legally okay to if the land isn’t posted.

It's not reasonable at all to keep people off your land if you aren't actively using it.
If you can't be bothered to slap some purple paint on a tree, you have quite the nerve to complain about people just walking through.

It’s not reasonable at all to assume that you can just walk around and hunt in property that is not yours. If you want that sort of flexibility buy yourself some land.

It is reasonable because that’s the law. You are allowed to recreate on any land that is not properly posted, provided you are not damaging it, cutting down trees, etc.

There’s a difference between what’s reasonable, and what’s legal sometimes. The bottom line is that hunting only exists in Maine because of the generosity of the landowners.
Anybody can walk into Walmart and buy a shotgun, but without land to use it on it’s pointless. Unless you own land yourself remember to send a thank you card to the guy who’s letting you use his property.

Why are you struggling with objective reality?

Why are you so defensive of mooching? What’s the big deal about letting your neighbor know you plan to be in his yard?

You think the entire forested area of Maine (90% of land area) is "someone's yard?"
You have some kind of deeply pathetic Stockholm Syndrome.

Yes it is.
You just explained how to do it.
