Okay so it's quickly becoming apparent that trying to manually log the chatbox history is NOT going to work; when there's a bunch of people all RPing at once, it burns through the 5 tiny pages of history really easily. I've already lost some bits that I'd like to be able to reread, even after starting my attempt to keep it logged. The chatbox is cute and convenient but just not that great for meaty RP!
But there is a site that's great for it; MSPARP was created as a Homestuck RP site so everything's got the right aesthetic already, and you can create multiple character settings to make switching between handles and colors easy. Best of all, it saves the logs thoroughly and automatically, and they're nicely formatted to read over! I know it's not quite as convenient as a chat box that's right on the forum page itself, but I think it's better quality.
msparp.com/replayernetwork
I've created this room to use and would like to suggest that we move the bulk of our IC chatting over there, though of course it will require admin approval to make it official (technicolour Capitalist I'll gladly make you admit of the chatroom!).
Also, just in case anyone missed it, we already have a discord chat for OOC chat: discord.gg/010mJJIQAIOjHyvjF
