Thanks

The answer is no. Please see this question for more information on this design decision.

In general, the philosophy of FogBugz is to get in the way of the user as little as possible, which means that no fields are mandatory. To that end, I don't believe there is a way to make any of the default fields mandatory, nor is there a way to do so for custom fields. Finally, while I cannot speak for FogCreek, I would be very surprised if they decided to change this theme and allow for fields to be made mandatory, so don't hold your breath waiting for this "feature"

The philosophy of FogBugz often prevents project managers from doing theirs :-) Enforcing fields may slow developers down, but at least the information would be correct. – ldevoux May 12 2011 at 19:02

You could use the BugMonkey plugin to add some javascript to make it very hard, but not impossible, for users to submit a bug without filling in a field.
