Only trim prods play it.

No...
Plenty of people actually play castle wars, just it's been dying out lately due to certain greifers in private games, so a lot of the veterans have basically given up (myself included).
Castle wars was my favorite thing about runescape, as it took actual talent as far as playing the game, not just grinding away at something. I've been playing castle wars for years now... As have a lot of other people, but you don't see many of them on here, because they aren't concerned with maxing their levels.
The people that decide to play a game like castle wars, which has shit rewards (by design, we specifically asked for no useful rewards when they updated it, to prevent botting/leaching), are the type of people that do things they enjoy, and who actually enjoys skilling, or afking skills? I know I sure as hell don't. I am actually surprised I even bothered to max out, if the comp cape didn't save me bank space (only reason I really got it), I probably would have never maxed out myself.
TL;DR - People do play castle wars, just not many people that you would see on HLF. Although admittedly less and less people are playing castle wars now for two main reasons: #1 leechers/afkers ruining their fun, and #2 griefers ruining private games with their trial accounts.
