How noticeable is the bot?
are there any really good cata farming profiles out there.

I recently started using it (2 weeks ago). Once you get passed the initial confusion of setting it up (The guides sometimes assume you know what "this" or "that" is), then it usually works very well. I've been using one of the more complicated parts (questing bot) and I've done 2 1-85's already. As for farming, it's damn near flawless from what I've seen. There are many many routes on the forums, plus a plugin called ZapRecorder that makes it easy to make your own, and you can even import some routes from other bots.

As for being noticed... I really think that depends on your settings and what plugins you have or don't have... My bot got stuck going in circles for about 8 hours, but no one noticed ;P. Sometimes it does do stupid things. I'd say get a profile set up, and WATCH it for a good while to make sure it's not doing retarded things, and you should be good.

This is really the only problem I have run into. Reading forum posts, and guide, almost everyone uses acronyms, and to the new, or inexperienced, user, it is REALLY quite frustrating. Like I see ppl talking about IB alot in CC's,(Custom Classes btw) and I STILL do not know what IB is...Other than that, the bot works beautifully, with the only blemishs being the pvp function, and the fact that a lot of the things you were use to in Pirox needs plugins for it to work with HB. The absolute shining star of HB is the combat abilities of it. I would HIGHLY recommend searching and downloading Lazyraider if you do anything other than herb/mining, it has become an invaluable plugin for me =D

IB is InstanceBuddy, it's a botbase which is still in it's early stages but will run instances for you. As for the the OP's questions
1. The bot is not very noticeable. It can do stupid navigation stuff such as running in circles, or getting stuck but otherwise very realistic looking.
2. There are many great cata profiles, i personally farm with 3 bots 1 in uldum 1 in twihi and 1 in hyjal and use all public profiles, and i never have any problems and never get stuck.
3. For me it is very easy to use, but i have been using it for 1-2 years. If you need any help feel free to PM me and i'll help with anything I can.

I'm referring to converters and whatnot for routes to be used with GatherBuddy.

As for levelling, it didn't work 100% but it did pretty damn good. I used Kick's profiles (find them in the tested profiles levelling section). I had 2 bots running it, and one of them just "has issues" in general with basic things. I gave up on fixing him because he was seriously just...dumb. The other one was damn near flawless except for the occassional trying to run to the wrong town (like a hated faction town lol) and I'd have to intervene and repair the solid red armor.

All in all, I basically left both running as much as I could, even when sleeping. Sometimes I'd wake up and both bots/wow clients were dead. Other times one was still running strong. Sometimes the 'retard' one was doing something stupid like running in big circles.

However, still going
