I think it's a matter of talking apples and oranges to be honest. (The discussion)
As muns who write in prompt communities, we're used to writing fic with our sandbox and adding a disclaimer at the bottom saying. The Harry I talked about in said fic has nothing to do with any Harry in the community. Just my twisted imagination.
I think the confusion lies in that it's not made clear (to newbies) that this is a fic/RP community rather than a community like TM only dedicated to Dresden Verse(s). Wherein the fics that we write here are connected to said RP in the community and the characters. That we're using it as a jumping off point. So to speak. At least that is what I'm assuming we're doing.
I could be wrong on that one. If I were to write a fic to the community it's in 'our world' and I would get permission from the muns or at least a heads up. Rather than it being my writing world/sandbox and I'm just expressing my artistic license and posting for others to enjoy in the community.
Just my 2 cents that that is where the confusion is lying with reference to writing fic/posting/playing/getting permissions. I believe they are thinking TM Dresdenverse style rather than fic/RP world with our characters in the sandbox.
