I probably wouldn't be complaining if there had never been a link, but there was one until they changed the skin to this thing. Like WoW, FFXIV is a different game, but unlinke WoW, FFXIV's forums can not be accessed by a simple forum number changing, which makes it WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY more annoying since you have to go through the whole forum list to get it. Also, it's the only forum I know of that you can not simply change the "forum=" number (or letters, for Danalog) to access.
Putting the link there was a questionable decision in the first place.
An alternative to relying on the site navigation options might be to have a tab for FFXIV in your browser. I have three tabs for ZAM forums open at any given time and still have ample room for non-ZAM related pages to get their own tab as well. It's quick, easy, and Firefox does a nice job of saving them for me so I don't have to keep re-opening them every time I launch the browser. Very convenient and guaranteed to produce results.
