I think your Shift key is broken; nothing is capitalized in your post! You might want to look into that.
Original Post:
Affliction may or may not be better DPS (it probably is), but I find it agonizing to play. Staring at DoTimer or whatever the whole fight isn't my idea of fun.

I'll gladly sacrifice a little DPS for a gain in fun.


And yes, you have 190 more spell damage via gear than I do. I imagine that makes quite a bit of a difference, although I have more haste and crit than you for obvious purposes (spec).
properly played, you do not spent a lot of time keeping track of your dotimer.

timers like nugrunning sort your dots in order of their duration on the target. all you have to do is observing the dot which is at top of all others. if it has e.g. 8 seconds left you keep it in mind and spent your time watching encounterbars, aoe...

practice it on the dummies and you will quickly maximazing your dot uptime. i never outperformed deep affliction with any other spec i tried. maybe there is a difference in your raid comp when you compared hybrid destro speccs with full affi.

patchwerk 5,6k compared to 5k imp/s&f specc or thaddius 7,3k/affi 6k/hybrid

hope it´ll help, in case you can read my improper english
