i can prevent users from logging out?

Its impossible as all the user has to do is clear their cookies.

There used to be a hack to take away the logout so that banned users would stay logged in. However, as Blaine said, most people know that all you have to do is clear your cookies.

I think desperate would be the word. I would think you are most likely to upset your members by trying such tricks.

It increased participation rates in site activities because then they will always remember that they are not logged out, therefore, they will always come back there

You are seriously mistaken. People will not come back just because they can't find a Logout button. Just the opposite.

The way to get people to come back is to interest them.
