At Cycling ’74, we are committed to creating an online community where every user feels safe and welcome. In order to make clear what is expected, users should read and observe the following Code of Conduct.
Cycling ’74 is dedicated to providing a harassment- free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion, or cultural background. We do not tolerate harassment of users in any form. Inappropriate sexual language and imagery is not permitted within our online community at any time. Users violating these rules will be sanctioned or have their account blocked at the discretion of the moderators.
Harassment includes harmful or prejudicial verbal or written comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion, or cultural background; posting sexual images; deliberate intimidation; stalking; and unwelcome sexual attention.
Exception: Discussion, imagery, or other multimedia material related to sex, pornography, discriminatory language, or similar is acceptable if it meets all of the following criteria:
- It is necessary to the topic of discussion or artistic expression and no alternative exists.
- It is presented in a respectful manner.
- The moderators have specifically granted permission.
- A content warning is placed at the beginning of the post.
This exception specifically does not allow use of gratuitous sexual images as attention-getting devices or unnecessary examples.
Users who believe that a post or project may fall under this policy must reach out to the moderators at community@cycling74.com in order to be granted an exception.
Users who are warned to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.
If a user engages in harassing behavior, moderators may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender or completely blocking their account. If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact community@cycling74.com immediately.

Cycling ’74 Forums
Our Forums are home to a thriving and helpful community, including awesome Max veterans with over 20 years of knowledge to share.
Get the most out of them with these tips.
Post your patch. (Try and edit your patch so that it just includes the problem area.)
Place comments in your patch to illustrate what should happen and what does happen.
Include instructions on how to operate your patch to get the errant behavior.
If using Max 5 (or newer), use the Copy Compressed feature to copy your patch into your forum post.
If you have trouble posting a new topic with a copy-compressed patch in it, an alternative method is attaching a zip file of your patch to your topic.
Be clear with topic titles. General titles will get less attention, especially with dozens of topics being created at a regular basis.
