I can't claim any dramatic stories like so many on this board but I have been very gratified to make contact with a variety of family members: six from my husband's family and 4 from my own. Most of these I'd never even heard of before. Some contacts came from indirectly, others straight from Genes Reunited.
I'm also very grateful to the many people who have researched for me, even when I was just asking for advice. Also, through family contacts I've added whole family branches in a lump.
I am recommending GR to others who are interested in their own family tree - I think the Community is the greatest strength of this site.
