Is this why this game is so very "popular" ? I would like to kindly ask the administrators of the game to take good care when they pick their staff . Because they might get people like this :

Derg, I think you should let native english speakers to give an opinion. And it's dick head, not dickhead.
Agree that for US english speakers could mean something different, but I'm not from States, so I could not tell.

The meaning and the sense I used is the one I described (I have the Urban dictionary in my house)

I have to agree on this, this is indeed the meaning of DICK..HEAD and not the States version dickhead what's pretty much the same as asshole and/or m*therf*cker (srry for this kind of vocabular behaviour )

Native English speaker ? You must have skipped a lot of English classes when you were in school .

Everyone online has now seen that Étienne de Congost and James are quarreling.

Depending on which dictionary you look in dickhead is considered a mildly or less mildly vulgar synonym for idiot (if you aren't talking about sex, which hardly seems to apply here).

Now can you please take that screenshot down Étienne de Congost and delete it from photobucket? James certainly has a point that you aren't supposed to publish screenshots of other people's texts without permission - that opens another can of worms: copyright issues.

This doesn't really have anything to do with me, but I saw this as the only new thing when I woke up

Of course James didn't mean to be offensive (Atleast with the guy mistaking it for something worse than it is, but hey, even I would take it that way.)
But as many people don't think about it like that, and wont think of the space, will it be misunderstood many times yet to come. Some may just stay silent when it happens, more will most likely make posts like these.

One way or another, you should avoid saying things that could be misunderstood, because most people WILL be heard!

If it's Dick.head (without dot, and sorry for my language :b) or dick head, ( and again, ^^)

Hope my opinion is thought over and I ain't alone about it. ^^
If you think it's just sh** I let out then sorry you don't feel the same way
