AI Thread Summary
To exit the starter phase of the forum, members need to understand that the starter ribbon is specific to the member who initiates a thread, not an indicator of membership status. Unlike many forums, this platform does not display membership levels based on post count next to avatars. Instead, members earn trophies for various achievements, including the number of posts. Trophies can be viewed by clicking on a member's name and checking their trophy points. The discussion clarifies that starting a new thread is not a requirement for exiting the starter phase, and members can gain insights from the responses provided.

Thread 'My experience as a hostage'

I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup.
