If you have chat logs its worth sending the best way imo to gaining a visa is to make it as easy as possible for the ECO to tick all the boxes on the checklist and have any reason they think why they might object to giving a visa being made invalid with evidence or a wrriten explantion.

I guess Its makes no difference for an ECO to pass a visa or deny it as far as i know, so make there life easy with lots of evidence and a good covering letters answering any queries they might have regarding your application.

A pass means a basic report, asking an office minion to produce visa stamp in passport and denying means writing a detailed report in case of an appeal,writing a letter, possible more work due to an appeal or complaint.

The above is just an educated guess but 99% of people like an easy life so try and give the ECO one and they will help you out hopefully by granting the visa.
