Well ... I am admittedly a very taciturn person by nature, and rarely post (but, I have posted, and more often responded privately because I did not think my response really should go to the entire group), and have also been mentioned in numerous posts by others (as a response to my streaming video back in May). I'm not sure why that makes me of less value to the community than other members. I'm also not sure what purpose is to remove lurkers. If folks truly intend to only lurk, other than taking a slot in the membership table, what harm is there? If we really get to the point where we don't have the capacity to carry a few accounts of people who rarely post (granted, I don't know how many accounts will be removed nor what percentage of total accounts that is), then the state of the activity has reached some pretty loft heights.
On the other hand, I probably never would have joined except that, a few years back, access to the "Target Area" section of the forum was restricted to members only. I very much appreciate the folks who post information in those areas and wish I was confident enough in my abilities to post there as well. Assuming I will still have access to those areas without an account, and the group does not think there is that much value in my rare posts, then, yes, deleting my account won't bother me too much (except the elitist attitude that such an action seems to portray).
