After your registration you have 14 days cycles in which you can gain up to 14 Activity points.
Every post generates you 1 Activity point but in 14 days time span you can gain up to 14 Activity points even if you have more than 14 posts.
On the day 15 the cycle restarts and you can again collect your 14 points.

Then comes the Merit system. See the infographic
