So far as I know, PerlMonks is the only forum that provides a means of negative feedback
I find this an incredible claim. You've already posted not once, but twice, and at length, on the evils of downvoting: There were responses to your posts that mentioned sites with downvotes, such as Slashdot, Stack Overflow, reddit and hacker news. There was a response that refuted your claim that geocaching does not permit negative feedback (which you did not respond to). Finally, you yourself in a reply quoted that on Stack Overflow:
Downvotes remove 2 reputation from the post author
Had you bothered to do a small amount of research before posting for a third time on this topic, you would have easily discovered sites that provide a means of negative feedback.
