Roles Are Moments, Not Labels

In SkySync, you're not just a passive user.
You observe. You record. You notice irregularities.
Sometimes you verify what others submit.
Other times, you forecast what the sky might do next.
These actions may shift, overlap, or occur sporadically. The system does not require you to choose a fixed role. It recognizes contributions based on behavior, not labels.
Participation in SkySync is structured around action typesβnot as rigid categories, but as practical layers of interaction. Each layer is associated with specific functions, review conditions, and reward mechanisms.
