In my knowledge RxPG doesn't have a specific section for past papers. However you can find many recalled questions thread in the respective forums.

Can you elaborate a bit on your question? To post a link to another thread in a reply we just need to copy paste the link of that thread from the address bar of the browser.

When the length of the thread is long, say for eg 39 pages; then only the pages 1,2,3,38 and 39 are accessible. For page number 20, we have to go page by page making it tedious work and loss of time. is there a feature where we can access any page or post number at a single click? it would be mighty useful
