The chat window will keep a running history of everything entered. This history will persist between sessions, and is always available. You can also access a complete archive by scrolling to the top of your chat log, and clicking View all chat entries for this game >> This will load the chat history in a new window.
If you want to save a copy of the chat log, Select Show on One Page, and then press Ctrl+s to save it as a .html, or Ctrl+p to save it as a PDF.
Clearing the In-Game Chat Log
There's a button on the y My Settings-tab called "Clear Current Chat Log". When pressed, it will clear all the current chat history from your chat window while in a game. This doesn't affect the archived chat history that you can access from the Game Details page nor does it affect anyone else's view of the chat history. If you reload your browser, the chat history will be once again visible in the game.
