Red's been out for 4-5 years now. The vast majority of people who were legitimately interested in it have already tried it, and made a decision to not play there.
It had tons of people trying it out at the start, but they patched epic quests on blue like a week after red was launched, so alot of the people trying it out went back to blue.

Plus some really lousy things that didn't get fixed until later, ie. no guard assist in cities, broken summoned mage swords, spawning full mana if you died in pvp (resulting in casters binding near camps and just grief bindrushing people who challenged them for said camps), exp loss for pvp deaths.

The dedicated VZTZ derps who formed gank squads and killed random newbies at their bind for hours didn't do much good, either. One of the dumbest things about red was that the forums throughout beta were full of VZTZers bragging how they'd grief all blues off "their" server. And then they lost to Nilly and got banned for exploiting Nagafen.
