FanFIc Google Doc tech question

(1/2) > >>

Chalkarts:
I have what will appear to be a stupid question to many of you.
I'm a GenX Neo-luddite with the Gremlins flaw so I ask a lot of stupid tech questions.

If I share a google doc for people to read, are they able to edit it?  And if so, how do I prevent that?

I want to post my fan-fic link in a "Critique" thread on reddit, but as we all know reddit is a cesspool so I don't want someone from there trashing my text for fun.

I apologize if this is an inappropriate question for this forum.

Michael Chandra:
When you share a document, you can pick what role people get: Viewer, Commenter, Editor. So you could do for example the following at the same time:

- Sharing with specific e-mail account X as Commenter, because they're a cool dude and you want feedback
- "Anyone on the internet with this link can view"

Chalkarts:
Ok, so By default they cant do anything to it, I have to give permission for it to be edited, correct?

Michael Chandra:
Correct, if you click the Share button, then click "Change to anyone with the link", it will by default go 'anyone with the link can view'.

Chalkarts:
Cool, as long as I'm the only one who can make edits I don't mind who actually sees it.
I just didn't want some 12yr old reddit punk to delete all my work for fun.
