If it means that I stop getting those pseudo-casual emails that are apparently the preferred way to promote continued engagement or to pull me back in when I've been away for 'too long', I'm all for it.

For me it seems simple: if I stop using a service, it's because it didn't provide value to me. Even if I click a link in a reminder email out of curiosity - that doesn't change the fundamental problem.

I'd be interested to see some numbers on the long-term effectiveness of such campaigns, instead of the short-term spike in return visits
