You get merit for posting something that people find helpful or informative
Like the real life story that we are currently playing "continue to do good" and goodness is expensive. If in the forum continue to be active and contribute real come with questions or provide good thoughts in writing so that it provides benefits even though it is a little bit after being read by others. when someone wants to apply it, it can work as you said.
I am sure all bonuses will come to you by themselves
