Currently, there are two independent chat during the game - the player's chat and the spectator's chat, each don't see messages from the other.
And when the game is finished, and players leave the game, the player's chat is no more accessible.
The info from that chat might be necessary for referees, for example, when we want to indicate the intents of a player (for example, when he writes "I adjourn" that means that he utilizes his right to initiate the adjournment (so stopping the game and resolving the game a draw).
As it is impossible to see the player's chat after the game is finished, in tournaments we have to ask players to take screenshots as evidence of anything important happened in the chat. No screenshots -> impossible to prove things which makes it complicated to effectively organize adjournments with no cheating.
Is it possible and/or reasonable to make the player's chat accessible for reading after the game is finished?
if you were the one who played the game, you can still access the player chat by opening the game through your profile. imo the player's chat is private and shouldn't be viewable by others
