They've been selling them to the DE!

I'm joking of course, i have no idea whats going on, and we've been noticing the shortage as well. I wonder how much diamond ore is actually left....

There is a lot of diamond ore left. Diamonds are not as rare as people make them out to be.

I never believed that there wasn't many diamonds left, i was simply interested in how much there was. I mean, in a 10k x 10k map its safe to assume there are A LOT of diamonds.

I can explain it. What happened about 2 months ago? The update adding ravines and abba donned mine shafts. Wel I was exploring a ravine and mineshaft that spanned about 8 realms and I was at prime diamond level and never found a single diamond. I was in it spelunking for about 3 hours and nothing showed up. I got tons of iron gold and god knows ow much coal. So I ask, do diamonds spawn in these to natural occurrences ?
