I am wondering how to make everybody default to having forum posts display in classic mode.
This is what I am talking about ->

This is my forums ->

AdminCP > Configuration > Search "Post Layout" then Check "Display posts using the classic layout" and Save Settings
What this will do is force all new users who register to use the classic postbit layout. However your current users will still be using the horizontal layout, so what you need to do is...
Go to your database > SQL > Run the query below
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `classicpostbit` = '1' WHERE `classicpostbit` = '0'
