I don't think it is possible to disable only the Editor parameter. You can however remove the entire Basic Settings, by following these steps:

  1. In the Joomla backend, go to User Manager
  2. Go to Options
  3. Set the Frontend User Parameters to hide

Remove only the Editor parameter, the only method I can think of without hacking core code is to use CSS to hide it.
