Would it be possible, that if a new user registers, he will become a connection to everyone automatically ?
Reason why I'm asking is that I use CB for a club, so everyone knows each other, so it makes in this case more sense that people are autoconnected and afterwords can decide to disconnect from certain people
CB Auto Actions comes with a Connections action for establishing connections. There's also the CB Auto Welcome plugin that can do similar.
However, establishing a connection to every user at once during registration would likely be too much and best way to do that would be a Query action and directly insert the connections into the database with 1 or 2 queries at most. Connections are stored in the _comprofiler_members table. The downside of doing it directly in database is no notification will be sent.

thanks for the pointers and I agree with the auto connection taking away the purpose of the connections and a group being an alternative. It was just a question I got from the users and was looking into.
Seems they misunderstand the benefits of the connections, so I need to explain this to them more
