Sometimes I feel a bit frustrated about the fee-system of Nxt, when I see these kind of blocks passing by:

It's not really fair and the rich are getting even richer this way. I love Nxt, but there are small flaws which needs to be addressed. The critics will talk negative about Nxt because of these kind of issues.

Maybe a percentage instead of a fixed fee? Curious to hear about the options.

lets revise this thinking.. no one is getting "richer" by sending a 1NXT payment.

lets call NXT "Affordable"

I've forged plenty of blocks for 1, 2, 3 NXT. and just last week I forged a block with a 100,000 transaction that the sender included a 100NXT fee in., so I was happy.

The transaction fee should cover the cost in processing said transaction. As the size of the transaction does not depend on the amount beeing transferred, both transactions should have the same fee.
Otherwise you will open the door to spamming.

The fee should be as small as possible while still sustaining a secure network. As the costs for forging are so low, this mainly comes down to a fee that discourages spamming. Even without spamming and a theoretical fee of 0 nxt, the Nxt hodlers would secure the network by themself to secure their coins.
