Homepage Link From Forum
In between User CP and FAQ, you need a link to the home page of AG. If it's there, I don't see it.

Or there's the 'Adventure Gamers' link at the botom of the page.

I may be missing something, but >>any of the links in the reminder bar will take you to the main site.<< doesn't tell me much. I'm not sure what the "reminder bar" is. The bottom of page site option doesn't get me back to main page.
And there is nothing particularly intuitive about clicking on the logo, which requires one to scroll up, rather than down, as a way to get to the main page. I know how it works now, and know how to do it. But, that said, the home page really should have a Quick Link. That's where people go to find the screenshots and release dates. Just a thought. |
Erm, where does the bottom link take you then?
I think by "Reminder bar" Tabacco was talking about all of the links in the "The Latest from Adventure Gamers..." table. |

Yeah, that's what I did. Actually AdventureGamers.com community is the very first one on my links bar. When I need to visit the site itself I always click on the logo in the forums.

I've been in the marketing business since I graduated from college in 1969, and got my MBA in marketing in 1972. Trust me. Telling someone that what they want to do is a "bother" to the powers that be is a sure way to lose a customer. I hope you are not speaking for the people who have the right to actually speak on this topic. |

There is a link at the bottom of the page and a huge one at the top.
Or just get a browser with a links bar where you can put the AG homepage. I don't see what the problem is. |

70% of my client base is trade associations; which rely on volunteer activity to sustain their existence. All take umbrage when I make a suggestion to improve operations. It doesn't matter if the improvement might be worthwhile. If I'm volunteering my time to make this happen, I'll do it the way I want. Sorry you felt offended in that way. But, even if you have created the best way of doing things, one must always search for a better way. I asked for a toolbar link to the AG home page. The conversation has gone far beyond that. |

Now, one could argue that this is all an issue of semantics, but from where I'm standing - and I have no say in the matter anyway, so don't take this answer as anything official - there's certainly a problem with the tone of your "asking", and that's what gets people riled... |

Speaking personally I've always found the logo intuitive plus there does seem to be a link at the bottom that points to the main page. Normally I don't use it though because instinctively I go the other way. I'd browse articles on the main site and then head into the forums. If something on the main site is mentioned in the forums someone usually posts a direct link to the specific article. the only reason I'd go the other way was if I was on th efoums and suddenly remembered I hadn't checked out the main site in a while. Second the appreciation of the staff here. Always happy to be here and have such a good here to come to. |

Mmm. Addressing the sole question of the homepage link and ignoring the rest... (since I don't feel like getting stung by the hornet's nest, as it were...)
While one could debate whether or not having a website's logo be the homepage link is user-friendly from an objective human interaction POV, from a standard web practice POV, having a website's logo as a homepage link with no separate text link is extremely common, and has been for some time. Therefore, while I can understand requesting a separate text link (since not everyone spends ungodly amounts of time surfing the web learning its quirks), I personally wouldn't find Tabacco negligent for assuming it's unnecessary on what is essentially a hobby site.
