It really depends.
I mean if you make a fan project and you host it on your own servers, then there is substantual costs involved and that should at the very least be covered with say... Advertising or donations.

I strongly disagree with this ... 

That just defeats the purpose of IP ownership. If anyone but the creator could be allowed to monetize IPs then there would be no need for copyright laws. Making a derivative work only to profit from it without the creator's permission is no different from stealing and that's just ethically bankrupt ... 

I have no problems sharing derivative works but charging for it without consent of the copyright holder is going too far ...
