How to stop Repeated Posts

Yep, use that all the time . . . Also use the "search" facility before asking a question as quite often a subject has been addressed before . . Usually a few times . . Also use the "mark all posts as read" facilty to get rid of all those posts of no interest to me . .

This response of Stroppy's is more to the point in avoiding regaling us with hilarious old jokes that are even older having been posted on this Forum at least once. 
You can only check that with the "search" button.  Used intelligently, it can very quickly turn up relevant posts back to the beginning of time (well, the beginning of the Forum, anyway).

That gets a bit hard when the same joke/story comes up under a different heading like what happened recently

I use "View the most recent posts on the forum" at the bottom of main page to try to keep up to date with what is happening on OzSTOC
