I don't see a way to disallow voting by reporter with out changing the bugzilla code. Someone can correct me here.
I'll change the "votes to confirm" setting to 1 if there is enough people who want it.

Just had a quick question about the voting process on Bugzilla, hope Jeremy sees this and can answer it. It seems that when a bug is voted for by 1 person, it does not become confirmed like it used to, it now takes 2 votes. This seems a little unnecessary, as 1 vote would mean that 2 people are experiencing the same problem (the reporter and the person casting the vote), in which case it is most likely a bug, and not some mis-configuration. If we are worried that a bug reporter might exploit this and confirm his own bugs by using the voting system, we could always set it up to disallow votes from the reporter, couldn't we?
Just my thoughts. Hoping you will see my point and lower the "number of votes to confirm" value by 1..
