I also noted that if you scroll up through the chat, it retains it's position while the chat scrolls on. (Can't remember if it stays there even if you post a message)
Could we make it so when you post it'll jump down to your latest message? I don't believe it should scroll down for every message that appears as it makes it a nightmare to read previous lines.

<Snipped quote>Eh. I sometimes like going through conversations and occasionally reply something in between. 

<Snipped quote> This. So much this. I've been quite annoyed at active IM conversations which don't just want to let me read the backlog...

Yeah, I also hate it when chats don't let you read the history. It's actually enraging. :lol

The current chat will only auto-scroll if a new message comes in while you're within 100px from the bottom (i.e. you're within a few messages from the bottom). If you're scrolled up more than 100px, then it assumes you're reading history and leaves you alone.

One improvement would be to add an indication when new messages have been posted while you're scrolled up.
