Thanks for the lot of reply!
EDIT: What's IC chat?

And there's also the built in screenshot function to deal with taking screenies of the log but I'm more interested in being able to Ctrl + F on a log to find previous interactions I've done with some people because my memory is kinda shit so I want something to reference back to in case I talk to that person again.
1) Wordpad/notepad. You can copy/paste your logs, easily, so just saving them in a wordpad works wonders. Especially if you have an entire tab that's JUST for IC communications.
2) Gyazo. If you like to capture the text as it looks on the window, and also great for capturing pictures of the scene itself!

Some groups do it almost routinely but I would always ask a new friend or RP partner.In my case, I want to do it because I have poor memory and don't want to offend someone when we just talked the day prior or something and I already forgot what we talked about last.
That said I use Notepad ++ and CPaste. I don't log a lot though.
I don't know of anything that just...continuously logs text.

However I do believe one of the parsers, the one I don't use, does store chatlogs as well. But I'm not certain how that works, and not to mention, it isn't legal. However, everyone uses them, or at least raiders do, and as long you do not speak about it ingame, or harass people with their terrible DPS parsing, SE doesn't care.I've looked around for info regarding parsers and SE's stance seems to be just don't flaunt it openly in public in-game and you won't be penalized. However, the only parser I know is that one parser that helped me get rid of RMT spam when I was still in Faerie. As far as I know, it doesn't have chat logging at all.
But eh, as for legally storing your conversations? I fear you will have to copy paste the text into a document.

I would trim the type of chats in a tab, maximise it and then cut and paste.Â
There are parses that are not allowed, many do use for dps checks. I don't use, condone or recomend these.
Saving IC chats is fine by me, but saving everything seems odd, especially worrying when quoted out of context. But then we all have our oddities. Mine is screenshots and forgetting things.
Edit - I also use snipit the windows tool to grab things too, if put in evernote or gdocs it will OCR/search on the text.
