new mods are decided by the mod team and david, if you ask to be a mod.. you wont be one, if we feel that you are capable of being a mod, and also there is a vacancy for a mod, then someone will be selected.. but they have to have been here longer than 3 days....
This is my first forum of this nature to join, but I am a mod on a car forum, our rules are a little more strict though. We do not allow "teen speak" words like "rofl, lol, lmao" etc will get you banned quicker than anything. proper grammer, and if there has ever been signs of immaturity there will be most likely never a mod job in the future.
I do not get this.. What is the huge deal about being a mod? I mean sure its a big privilege, but it isn't like you become superman all of a sudden... Why is everyone so obsessed with becoming one? I would do it if I was asked to, but I do not really see a huge plus that it gives, if only more responsibility.

There are no rules about it at CF, but the three you mention are harmless enough, everybody uses them including me, ones I don't like are wtf & OMFG, then there's rapp & what I call "textspeak", like "u" for you, etc, some mods like me, ask them to use plain English & most of them comply.
I think its standard to try and talk properly on a forum, thats another one of the reasons I use this forum, because your activly talking propperly rather than talking like you would on an IM which helps your spelling etc. Well its helped me anyway
