It has been resolved! Well, not really. It's showing the game specific forums again automatically without having to click the link, but it's showing ALL of them, not just the ones for games you have played.

Now it's broken in a different way.

When I visit boardgamearena.com/forum, I get a "Sorry, an unexpected error has occured" message. Only if I go to some other BGA page first and click on the FORUMS link can I get into the forum. Even then, if I go into some subforum and then use the browser's back button, I again get the "unexpected error" (which is kind of expected by now) when I reach the forum's main page. I guess they're checking the referrer or something?

Fortunately, forum.boardgamearena.com still works properly.

I'm not having that issue. If I start at a page completely unrelated to the boardgamearena.com domain and directly go to the address boardgamearena.com/forum it works fine. Same with backing out from a game-specific sub-forum.
