Well you can do it, but it might aggravate some users.. Sure you want to do it?
If you run an SQL query to force them all onto email subscription and remove the option to change it then yes, but people will get very annoyed and will either change their email address to a fake one, or leave, as they will very soon get sick of constant emails. Plus your host will have to send out loads too.

Not a problem to do like, i am using it in my organization, peoples who are working in my company they should get forum mail. and let me know if i want to go back to previous situation what i have to do?
Thanks
Once you've removed the stuff from the templates to stop them changing it, you can add the option back by just adding the code back.
Almost on topic...

Instead of starting a new thread, can someone tell me how to set the defualt reg sign-up page setting to 'subscription w/ no email' instead of the current drop-down default of 'no subscription'?

Thanks again for helping.

EDIT:
This was easy to find in the member_register template.
I take it you solved your problem seeker?

Realistically, the subscribe to forum should really be up to the user. You can't make them subscribe to every single topic made - just the ones they've replied to. This alone is ineffective for you want to do hari_techaspect, so you might need to take a look at getting a plugin made...

Yes, it was easy, thanks Tom.
First I thought the default would be in member.php, and I was glad to see all I had to do was change the list order in the template.
