This would have to be carefully balanced yes. The frequency would be set to something like 1-2 months (at least for me). If there hasn't been any activity for that length of time, then they are not really contributing to the forum anyway.
In this particular instance my 1-2 month warning email is more of a courtesy email to let them know they are about to be removed from the forum. If they get one email in this frequency and don't come back because the forum was 'bugging them' then they really have no place there.
Sometimes people need to be reminded that you're there. I've seen it all before
