"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

<<If you want more votes on TWC, make more vote incentives. Do you know how many people only vote on Friday when they get something for voting? More votes means you're higher on the list, and the higher you are, the more likely it is that people will just randomly start reading... and the more people that randomly start reading, the more people that randomly join the forums for us to torment... I mean, terrify... Er, befriend! Yeah...>>
