there are some errors:
wrong meta
some poor gemming
some poor enchants
bad talent build
wrong glyphs
eminently upgradable pieces
read stickies
that said, if you think you're doing "sick dps" then why are you asking for criticism? if you're happy then why worry?

Use
this
meta gem, its way better than the one you have.
Never pass on 5+ SP Bonus on yellow sockets
Fel hunter glyph is used for PvP, not for PvE (which you are geared and speced for); its the healers job to heal you...use glyph of quick decay
I suggest the 55/1/15 or 56/0/15 (my favorite) build from the stickies, you have some talent points wrong
Since we like to help with explanations we had someone (asakawa) write a wonderful FAQ, in which he gives all the explanations ;o)
PS: congrats on doing "sick" DPS in comparison to 3 weeks ago...just dont expect the gain in DPS to continue at this rate ;o)

Chaotic Skyflare Meta, take the 3 points out of fel concentration and put it in eradication. Swap glyph of felhunter with glyph of quick decay. Re gem and enchant

do the talent changes Moochoo suggested and swap improved drain soul for soul siphon (+9% drain soul dmg > some mana) if you have problems with threat you should go for a DP build 56/0/15 and get both.
21 crit < 25 SP, but +3% crit dmg >>> 2% Int
Say RIP to your guild and drop it.

apart from the point in fel synergy (which is perfectly fine) i dont see any special "stay alive" stuff in your build...i see it in your gems and enchants.
just as a hint -> soul siphon increases your drain life by 9% and thus, adds "stay alive" ability

i listed your issues and all the answers are in the FAQ (and other stickies) so it undermines your "i read the stickies" comment when you're making mistakes that are covered there and THEN are unwilling to find the answers when the issues have been listed.
my point is that quick answers make for lazy players. a list of things to go and look up yourself is much more likely to result in a good over all player. that's what i'm aiming for even if you don't appreciate it.

asakawa is a grumpy expert lurking in the depths of this forum...i bet his lock is a dwarf.
he is also usually right, so its worth listening to him (and be glad to have him around).

there are things in this game that are debatable and based on opinion (should i play affliction or destruction).
there are things that have definite answers but are based on variables (should i use GoLT or GoImmo in my destro spec?)
then there are things that have clear answers.
the best meta is not debatable.
whether an affliction spec should use eradication or not is not debatable.
that +10 stats is the best enchant for chests is not debatable.
that GoFH is a terrible glyph for PvE destro is really not debatable.
you made some clear errors that don't require conversation they require correction. once you've been made aware of the errors then whether you make the changes or not is up to you but i'm not going to spoon-feed you all the answers. no one is expecting you to memorise the stickies but referring to it when making decision like spec, rotation, glyphs and gear choices is not so much to expect.
the point is you asked for a review and you got one. you got a full list of problems that are holding you back and a pointer in the right direction to find answers on specifics.
read more. complain less.
...and don't put yourself up for criticism if you don't want to be criticised.

I read the stickies does not mean I have them memorized.
Then look them up again. Or copy-paste them in a Word file and save it on your USB-drive or w/e. But don't say you've read it, and then ask questions for which the answers are mentionned in the stickies.
My point is if all you really have to say is" read the stickies" then don't join the conversation.
As others have said, we're not like this to EVERYONE. Btw, when we get a topic like yours, our reply is usually shorter. We just say "read the stickies" and be done with it. But this time, Asakawa actually made the effort of summing up the shortcomings.
If you followed this forum long enough, you'd see loads and loads and loads of boring topics that say something like "what am I doing wrong", "rate me plox", 'why isn't my deeps higher" etc. If the post doesn't include a specific question, we reply with "read the stickies". By saying this, we hope that person will have the non-laziness of actually looking at them and learning from them without any further questions.
I think i came close to the build this place advocates and just wanted to get the finer points down in a more personal way.
Talent build is felhunter oriented----WHICH I READ IN THE STICKIES
These 2 quotes aren't exactly the same now, are they?
I've read the stickies, I've read the stickies, I've read the stickies......
Thats all I ever get from this group anymore. The druids love giving advice with explanations.
Druid forums handle "rate me plox" topics exactly like in the lock forums. They only give constructive info if the OP was constructive as well (and no, saying "gief advice!" is not constructive).
Wrong meta ---WHY? That is the best I could find on auction.......
Name a better glyph than Haunt for an Affliction build
Talent build is felhunter oriented----WHICH I READ IN THE STICKIES
Quoting this to show you that you were arrogant and rude after the first set of remarks (I heard capslock gives cookies). Instead of checking what to change in the stickies, you chose to criticize the person giving the advice.
Well, that was enough feeding for today I think. Cya tomorrow!

that +10 stats is the best enchant for chests is not debatable.
+5 spi is
never
better than +10 int? Even for an rDPS optimized demo lock?

hehe, ok you found a debatable option ^_^
i was getting at +100 mana is not a good option but couldn't remember which bad enchant was used.

Sim your toon, depends on how much spirit you have and if you have the Life Tap glyph.
I get roughly 60+ more DPS using +15 spirit.

60 dps?
you mean 6?
