Hello again, I'm back for help about that modpack I'm making. I'm coming to a point where I've finally got most of the early game working and have been itching to get feedback. But I don't want to take the time to file it to become a 3rd party pack yet as I don't want people complaining about how it's so unfinished either. But I also want a little advice from others who play MC as much as I do, so I've come here for help.

So here's the unfortunate question: what should I do? I've already got permissions for all of my mods one way or another, but the game is very rough and I feel there may be exploits. Would it be acceptable and okay if I let about 3 people have access to my pack's mod and config files via Google Drive, or would that be unacceptable by social rule? I'm not completely ready to do this just yet as one mod I'm using is experiencing a tragic bug but once the bug is gone there'll be no real doubts as to whether I should do this if this is okay.

So, with those blobs of text over with, is it acceptable? Is there any better way? And should I even bother?
 
As a reminder... Technically, all you have to do to make a modpack is make the configs, and list what mods you are using. Same with servers, technically. Grey zones are indeed grey.
Now, that said, if you have all the permissions, but are worried about exploits, then balancing things is the only issue left. If you have even just 3 friends to help balance things, it's smoother and quicker then doing it all yourself.
