Why is this relevant to the issue of illegal logging?

Issue #1: Should people clear or log ohia as they develop their lots?

Comment: if you clear cut ohia to build your own house, then yes it is hypocritical to criticize someone else for clearing cutting their own land. If you only cut the ohia needed to make a clearing for the structure, and went to the trouble of not clear-cutting, then it's still reasonable to criticize massive cutting.

Issue #2: Accusation of illegal logging on DLNR-managed land for building cabins.
Comment: unless I have poached ohia from state owned land to use in my own house, I have every right to criticize -- regardless of whether I have ever cut an ohia on my own land.

Is DLNR coming down on Belly Acre's for cutting trees on their own parcels? If not, then issue #1 is irrelevant in this context.
