Yes, Sims don't use the rink autonomously and even if you create a club of townies they will not use it but stand outside the rink and comment the skaters (mis)fortunes which is quite nice.
BUT it is nevertheless very easy to fill the rink! Let your played Sim start to skate, then click on every nearby Sim you like and invite him/her to join you. They will obey immediately and skate with you for a long time. It is not necessary that your Sim knows the townies. Maybe this is even by design to avoid chaos on the rinks. Perhaps a guru can clarify this.
Thanks for the tip! In one of my saves, I found where EA had put a roller skating rink in Magnolia Park in WC, but my sims were the only ones using it. I thought there was a lot name added by EA, generic lot, that pushes townies to use...I'd like to find out if it still works. I made a dynamite nightclub using it and lots of sims used it.
