While it's mind boggling that i'm the only member of the folder and its still considered "shared" is beyond me, but once I unshared the folder from everyone, than I was able to move it, Thank You

When you remove the last member, Dropbox can't assume that you want to unshare the folder. What if you were removing everyone to add a new set of people? You'd have to go through the sharing process again. It's better to not assume anything and allow you to unshare the folder when you're ready.
