"files stay here for the team" prevents me from moving files from team to personal folder
I - a TEAM ADMIN - cannot move files or folders from a team folder, to my personal (i.e. ADMIN) folder. I get an incredibly annoying message "files stay here for the team". How do I get around this?
Ok this is absolutely unacceptable and I'm furious Jay please tell me this idiotic bug which is being presented as a "feature" will be addressed or I am cancelling my business account immediately. I just spent the whole day working offline - which involved moving files from team folders to my personal folder (because they were no longer needed in the team folder). Once my internet came back, dropbox MOVED THOSE FILES BACK TO THE TEAM FOLDERS WHILE I WAS RENDERING and completely messed up my renders and project. This is absolutely idiotic that DROPBOX OVERRIDES MY ACTIONS WITHOUT WARNING OR CONSULTING ME.
The original "killer app" of dropbox is that you could do whatever you wanted in explorer and dropbox would magically do the right thing, optimally, to sync it. I mention this for the benefit of newer dropbox engineers and project managers who seem to have forgotten that by engineering a brand new bug that is directly antithetical to the original mission. I'm sure there's a contingent over there that would love to jettison the filesystem integration finally so it's easier for them to manage our file-managing. You are hereby on notice: do. not.
