Hmm, pretty good question OP.

According to my opinion, merit should not belong to lengthy postes or topics. Rather you should emphasize your knowledge and explain it. It means that a large post does not attract people, you have to explain the big meaning in small words.

My personal opinion is that quantity is not quality. I am putting in front of you some of the rules of the post, which in my opinion, has caused me to get merit. Which you can also implement and post quality better.
✔. Explore new knowledge as much as possible and explain it in easy and simple words.
✔. Do not hesitate to ask high-ranking members in any thread, whatever you want to ask or explain within the scope of the principle, you can express it through a clear-cut post.

Advice: IMHO, you should just focus on post quality and not merit. If your post quality is better, then you will definitely get merit.

We can earn merits not because we made a very long topics or threads but we can earn merits by expressing our knowledge and how we delivered our thoughts once other users like our post cause they learned something then they will give some merits to us. In short even 20 words of reply once it will helpful and useful then you got some merits. Anyways some users didn't attract to those long threads cause they will felt tired to read all of those thread.

Just few words sentences can give you a merit which more than 400 words can't give. A meanful and helpful post or reply are more welcome than a lengthy and meaningless post. Learning to write a good and reasonable post is the best to grow in the forum.
