I think the issue is every forum has a specific interest check and then there's the general on top of it. It's sort of made obsolete by one or the other.

I just see it as a way to spread exposure. Someone might not check Advanced Interest Checks at all, but instead check General Interest Checks and Casual Interest Checks. If a GM posts their interest check in Advanced & General, then people could actually notice it and it can act as their introduction to Advanced roleplay, provided they feel they can meet the standards. Quite a few of the roleplays I've joined are ones I found through General Interest Checks, if I look back on it.
