Error adding song. Please make sure the song doesn't already exist.

No, the song does not exist. Another song of the same name exists, but looking at the tabs here that doesn't seem like it should be a problem. So yeah, what the hell?

If a song by the same name already exists, or even the same song but you've tabbed it differently, change the name by giving a brief description in parenthesis after the title.

Examples:
Someday Soon ----That already exists, but I tabbed a completely different song.
Someday Soon (by The Doors)

You could add (Crossharp) or (F harp) or (Chromatic) or (Lower Octave) or...Well, look up "Piano Man" or "House of the Rising Sun" for many more examples. It's just that there can't be more than one song with the exact same name.

Just don't add (This one's better than the other piece of crap).

LOL! Indeed!

So, what happens when someone just keeps adding a bunch of songs that are already up anyway? Does someone talk to them? >.>

If they keep adding a bunch of songs that are already up, but it has significant differences, that's fine. Nothin' wrong with that. A good thing, even.

But if they get caught making a duplicate, they are asked to delete it.
