Have you ever have park rangers make you take your hammock down? Perhaps because it "damages trees" or because of some safety regulation? I'm just curious.

Not yet, but I'm sure it has happened or could easily happen.
Good reason to stealth camp.

nope,never,i get a lot of curious people askig questions about our hammocks and tarps when we go car campingneo
the matrix has you
I have never been hasselled for it, but I have been questioned about it hurting the trees. I showed them the webbing and even untied it to shew them that it didn't hurt anything and they were cool about it, they actually thought it was a neat idea (go figure). I have heard of places making people take down their hammocks though because of those reasons.

Had a ranger wake me up once, but he was just checking to see if I had a permit.

No parks around here...but when I go camping at the lake I may report back if I get any gruff...
pavins and bass river state parks (NJ). had to hang my tarp with webbing , not rope. (hammock had webbing) said i set a bad example to the other campers with their cloth lines and blue tarps. they were nice about it. ( had extra tie downs straps in truck) other campers were pointing at my sight saying he has ropes on trees (mason line).
in the winter, same rangers, no problems
