Yup, fences make good neighbors. When I bought some acreage to retire on some 13 yrs ago, I proceeded to fence it off and talked to the neighbors who used to freely hunt and fish on it that I would appreciate it if they didn't. I still have sections to fence and a house to build on it but I think they've all got the message. It's a tough situation because they've watched out for trespassers and called me when they think there's a problem or helped me with a stuck tractor. I appreciate their neighborliness and will help them as well, but.....I've been solid in my stance (but polite) that it's my property now and won't give anyone permission to use it as a communal recreation area.
As for the OP and how to communicate it to others: I don't think it matters. Do it in a letter, talk individually to them, post signs, whatever you feel comfortable with. It's up to you how you do it and you should not feel like you're offending someone by the method you use in asserting your (or your friend's) property rights to those who are trespassing.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
