So what does base target percentage actually mean?
Is there a "good" and a "bad" percentage? If so, what are they? (less than X, greater than Y)?

Tonight I was thinking again about the fees. We should not change the fees already, it's not wise.
In this early fase of Nxt I hear nobody complaining about the high fees, mostly because not a lot of payments are done.
But I DO hear a lot of complaining about the joke of forging. In the early fase of a cryptocoin, the miners/investors are the most important people, they make a coins succesfull (look at Dogecoin). To get a lot of attention, we need to attract the miners and investors first!
Later when it gets more populair you can lower the fees!

Thanx Wesley.
Btw: Do you have any news about the Mac-client? I stopped forging because the client doesn't update to the new critical versions.

Bump you have the casuality in reverse: few payments are done BECAUSE the fees are high.

Base target shows how long to wait till next block in average. Also it's one of the traps for copycats. Without knowledge of TF internal mechanisms forging of their copycoin will stop eventually. There is no good or bad percentage.

Bump you have the casuality in reverse: few payments are done BECAUSE the fees are high. Really? The 1 fee, doesn't bother me at all. And there are very limited places where you can pay with NXT at this moment. I'm forging for 1,5 month 24/7 with a nice account, but when the fees drop, I think I will stop with an unlocked account. It isn't worth it anymore.

It isn't worth it anymore.  Nxt is completely unusable for micropayments and tips. The fees are so high that using a forging pool right now doesn't make sense if you don't have at least 100k NXT. It's a very serious design error, but the only sensible way forward is to have big and medium holders who forge not because it's profitable, but because it indirectly gives value to their holdings. Maybe someday the transaction volume will rise so much that it's going to become profitable again. Just look around. Nobody uses NXT. So much wasted potential.

That's the point. Although it's not as bad as zero. Now imagine NXT fees are zero! A fast way to "1000 TPS"

The reason why there are so little NXT transactions are because they are way to expensive. If i want to send the lowest amount possible to a friend, so he can send it back and test his setup, it costs mit 2 NXT total. (send 3 to him, 2 come to him and he sends the 2 back) That are 12-15 cents.
Our network wants to tell everyone that we can handle big traffic with little cost, but the way i see it, with the fee staying that high, not many transactions will occur.
Or look at faucets. Many people want to enter a currency for free at start to test it out. Now we can get 3 NXT from a faucet. that is 1 transaction .... Rly?? I think currencies like Doge are so successful because the fee is ridiculous low, its 0.01 Doge, that is like a 10.000th of NXT..
I predict a more than 10 fold in transactions if the fee drops to 0.1 NXT and the fractional NXTs get enabled. Also even if it does not increase by tenfold, then then widespread of the currency makes up for it.
FEE 0.1!!!! NAOWW
