Go to the last page (10th page) and then you will see "View older results".

If software tries to query, fetch, and paginate thousands of posts at once, then it would be a really bad design for large forums that contain millions of posts.
 
"View older results" button is located at the bottom and displayed when you are on the last page of the current pagination.

You (and many others) would probably be more annoyed if it took forever to load all those posts anytime you wanted see any posts that you made.

It is better to use search features if you have a lot of posts, and want to find a really old one.

Head is not a trash. How do I remember any keywords from years ago? especially if you've over 54000 posts?
maybe idea with grouped posts by title instead of "duplicate" them?
 
If "you" are looking for your own content, then click on "Find threads" under Forums:

You will see the following:

For the threads you created, click on "Your threads" (default tab). For the threads which include your posts, click on "Threads with your posts". So there is no duplication.

If "someone else" is looking for your content, then Advanced Search is much better for grouping on threads:

Fill posted by with your user name (additionally keyword, time etc...).
Select "Display results as threads", so no duplicates for each post.

Soon, there will be a "Older than" option that will let making search between two days. More info.

Additionally, I always recommend using Bookmarks system for creating your own library as future reference. You can create labels for easy filtering, and name the bookmarks as you need.

Hopefully this helps.

I don't know if something is lost in translation there, but I have no idea what that sentence means.

I usually have a pretty good idea what I am looking for, so I use those keywords.
You are looking for something in particular, right, and not just randomly reading through old posts from years ago?

Note that there is a whole section on searching found in the "MrExcel Board FAQ & Help" forum: Searching in the Board
The old board forum did not have good search functionality, so I routinely used the "Google search" techniques described there.
Even with the move to this more robust forum, I still use those techniques (out of habit), and they usually serve me quite well.
