"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?

Nothing frustrates me more as a business owner than wasting time. Now instead of just getting work done, I'm on the Dropbox forum dealing with this because my team is angry. 

 

Here we are with yet another Dropbox problem. People are saying they've been doing this for years and it worked fine, now Dropbox is telling us it's expected behaviour and they have no plans to change it? Seriously? Who makes these decisions? Is anybody listening?
