I think it is, but I'm not guaranteeing anything! <img class='emoticon' style='Width:19px;Height:19px;' data-delaysrc='https://uat-englishforward-forums-backend.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/Emoticons/5.gif' src='https://uat-englishforward-forums-backend.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/Emoticons/5.gif' alt='Emotion: wink'/>

I have no clue how that got there; good thing I didn't guarantee anything. Thanks for noticing.

Razeron disagreements

because of disagreements -- no the. You are not referring to specific disagreements, which would require the, but to disagreements in general, which is expressed by omitting the article.
