Haven't played RO for many years but played when the game was still in beta. TalonRO has made it an enjoyable experience so far, no complaints. Haven't had much contact with GM's however they seem to be active. There are a lot of event's and despite being able to buy items with donations, there is equal opportunity to collect the items in game, even as a newbie. So, thanks TalonRO! I will be donating to help the server as they have put in a lot of effort and there are costs to maintain it.
