Will anybody brainstorm with me? ^_^ I need some help coming up with ideas. I already know I want to do modern or historical, and my characters are probably going to be African, or maybe one will be European? I don't really know yet what I'm going to do but I like to have well-developed characters. Thanks for any help!

Have sent you a PM with a couple of ideas.
Actually both brainstormand brainstorming (v) would be correct. The suffix -ing helps to denote collective force as well as tense.
Of course, since the general idea is easy to discern arguing over grammar is silly and unimportant.
You are debating with a bot. Every now and then a rash of nonsensical posts appear on these boards as many others, containing tangential quotes or generalized remarks, outright drivel or, as new member lakota6418 has evidently been programmed to do, a lame dictionary definition of a random thread keyword.
The sole purpose of the post is to include a link to some dismal site that presumably generates cash for clicks. I would happily click every one with the knowledge that it activated electrodes attached to the testicles of the dimwit who devised this.
Moderators flush regularly.

why pm, why not post ideas here? I love to spin ideas...and the feedback can help turn a story around, or take the story some place new.
my yahoo group was awesome for this, had very active people

Thank you for stating that. Too many people "talk" to the spammers as if they have a real story idea or topic of discussion. (Like the one that said "I have two siblings. One boy and one girl. I miss them." Or some stupid shit in one of the incest STORY idea threads.

I agree. It can also give others new ideas and, not to be Martha Stewart-like, that's always a good thing. Let's start. I'll start.
The only thing you seem to be 100% certain about is that one character will definitely be African. This is a good enough place to start, but doesn't give us much to go on.
I think you should really pinpoint whether this is a modern or an historical story and I must ask ... Africa is a huge place filled with different ethnic groups: Arab, Nubian, Somoli, Zulu, hell the Portuguese alone have been in Angola and Mozambique since 1415, which makes for a whole lot of Caucasians in Africa some of whom might consider themselves African, although, like the rest of the world, I'm going to guess that if the character is from a specific country or ethnic group then they will describe themselves as such rather than as 'African'. For example, does any European describe themselves as European? There is a certain pride in the place one was born. Most people will say they are French, English, Ukrainian, American, Canadian, Brazilian, Argentinian, Chinese, Japanese, Egyptian, South African, you get the drift. African is a wide, wide generalization.
I'm only guessing that the character you have in mind isn't African-American. If he/she was, then I think you probably would have articulated that aspect. You've also suggested that another character 'might' be European. I do wish you'd be more specific because it really would make a difference in regards to the kind of story ideas I could give.
Going on the basis of what you have given to this point, and erasing African-American ideas to choose from ... here are a few thoughts... just remember, you only get what you give and if you can't give a lot of info then the help might not be of much use ...
1) Modern: Recently, in the news, was a story about a surge in British sex tourism in Africa. However, the tourists are white, middle to upper-class British women (cougars) looking for studly black lovers. Story idea: British woman goes to an exotic African location with her friends for a 14-day adventure. Her friends are horny and want to get laid. The character is happily married, or so she thinks. She is reluctant to have the kind of 'uninhibited' fun her friends are having. She is disgusted and questions the kind of friends she has and then, one night, she meets a particular man. He is everything she ever fantasized about. While her friends are taking in one lover after another, she is falling in love ... does she get on the plane with her friends and go home or does she stay in Africa with the man of her dreams. If she does stay, does he truly want her, or was it all a ruse?
So many directions that this story could go ...
2) Historical: 1501: Guinea: The Spanish were the first to take slaves from Africa to the New World for their own colonies in the Americas. The Spanish would buy slaves in slave markets that already existed in Africa and they would export them to the New World to do hard labour like farming and digging for gold. One Spaniard spots a woman that he falls instantly in love with. He is bound and determined to save her. He kidnaps her and takes her to a safe house. She doesn't trust him because she has been traded from one tribe to another and raped many times over before she even got to the port. Will he just take her in a moment of passion or will he continue to woo her until she is the one who makes the first move. Will she fall in love with him or will she turn her attentions toward his wife? Will his wife leave him for a slave in 1501? So many ways to go ...
Well, that's all I have for now. Please bear in mind that these are just ideas, public ideas that many can use.

Fair enough I'll show you what I sent in PM. Do you still have your group?
Using Africa as a backdrop, how about a couple of friends on safari and they get lost or in a situation where there is unrest. They could find themselves having sex to gain freedom out of the territory or for food and shelter. I could see a lot of possibilities.
If you want to go to Europe I would say go to a Eastern European country. Have a couple on vacation in an old part of a city (say Prague or somewhere like that). The small hotel (barely a hostel) they are staying at has a weird vibe to it until they realize that the young woman running it is actually supplying prostitutes to some of the guests. the couple finds it exciting because there isn't anything like that in their own home town in the US. They get into a casual conversation with the girl running things and ask about it. She openly talks about her workers and comments that the guest in the room next to them asked about the girlfriend, if she was a prostitute or guest. Another night passes and the couple has crazy sex while talking about her and how she is wanted by another man for sex. Decision gets made that she wants to know what it would be like so they arrange it with the girl running the hotel. Hard sex ensues when the girlfriend gets sent to multiple rooms. Allows for some different sexual experiences for this girlfriend.
If you need a character I would be more than happy to have you use my gf in any story you are considering. I can give you details and provide pictures for a visual if you want. Let me know where to send and what you think you may want to write.

Apologies might be in order. Sorry for the spammer accusation. I saw your PM in response to mine and see better what you were going for. Not sure I can help with ideas but good luck.

Sanichi quoted the original post from Likola is full in which it had a link that said "cool link here" in a FAKE sig line. (Meaning Likola put in a "line" like this ____________ to separate the main text with what would look like a Lit signature line and then added the link under the line.)
We've had a rash of new spammers all registered to the site within this month or October and they all have a fake sig line with a link to spam. It was not a far fetched idea to think Likola was a spammer as well. And, if anyone has noticed, the link was removed. Hmmm...

Well, I apologize that I never noticed the numbers at the end of the name. I didn't realize that Sanichi quoted someone else and not you in your thread.

Now that's just plain gross.
I don't think that I've ever seen spam, well outside of the can

Likola ... revisit this thread. It's unfortunate that assholes distracted you from my post as well as the posts from The Mighty Pen.
