I have hollywoodnose.com as a main site. Then I have forum.hollywoodnose.com as the subdomain.

I'm cautious to link to the subdomain from the main site. I did this before and droped 50% of traffic from the main site. Also, Google Webmaster Tools showed over 3000 incoming links from Hollywood Nose to the subdomain / forum. I'm assuming Google frowned on this and saw it as spam or something of that nature.

All I would want is link to the subdomain in the top nav bar of the main site. Is this safe? Will I get an overabundance of incoming links resulting in an SEO drop? Does anyone have any experience in this matter? Thank you.

Subdomains are seen as part of the same website as domain.com so this won't have any effect on your SEO.

I can't see how just linking to a subdomain could cause negative SEO effects. Many websites use subdomains for various things, like forums, support, news, etc.
