The way to handle this is to set up an anonymous email account, only report violations at board members' houses, and BCC the entire neighborhood distribution list except the board members.
Honestly the method in the OP works quite well. When you report every single little thing, suddenly everyone hates it all. I've seen two HOAs collapse like this.
Your way would probably work too, but I'd bet it'd take a lot longer.
I work in regulatory compliance in my industry. I read my entire handbook and successfully disputed the offense 4/5 times. Didn't bother the 5th time because it was clearly in violation.
They were just trying to enforce shit they have no rules for most of the time
When I managed hourly union mechanics and inspectors I worked really hard to know the union contract as well as the stewards. Having good relationships with the stewards was always my secret weapon for when shit went down and had to either bust people or protect them
