OK it took me a while to get my head wrapped around the concept of these macros. I finally got them all set and while it DOES work my dps is ridiculously low. On Moorabi my destruction warlocks did almost double the damage. My afflction warlock did just a little more than the tank.

Going to have to work on this a lot more.
Well, a number of factors influence the damage on that spec. I wasn't saying a quick respec would immediately up the damage, just that its an efficient way to manage DoTs. I'll say straight off you have to have a good hit rating, and crit rating isn't nearly as important as it would be for destro. Without a good hit rating, my macros won't function very well on an affliction spec just because they operate on the assumption that they will land 100% of the time. If any of the DoTs miss, you wait the full duration before trying to reapply, which will kill your DPS.

Now I don't know what your stats look like, so I can't comment there, I just know that I run affliction rather well.
