Might be that the directory is created with more then owner access which would 
probably make it a security risk. Not sure why this would happen though. You 
may want to try removing the directory before you start screen. Or change the 
permissions accordingly, i.e. `chmod 0700 /tmp/screens/S-root`.

Apart from that. Do not run anything as root unless you absolutely have to. 
And in the case of CoD you certainly don't have to. 

Have a nice day
