Maintenance - schedule or whenever?

I'm hearing a lot about oil but what about the other stuff, like forks? This is what made me think of this topic...

I was talking with a friend, basically said they will wait until their forks leak before having them serviced. Mine weren't leaking the first time I had them, just felt it was time. I had about 10K miles on the bike. This last time they were definitely not right so I had them done again, just in 1500 miles (last summer versus now).
