I don't know who said it but I know of nothing.

They are more... In short supply than rare. There are still quite a few out there and if any oldbies returned, even more, it's just that no one is trading them around so it feels like they are rare now. Btw, it's not a bug...

I was told about 5 years ago that the diamond spawn rate (in mines) isn't a fixed number but rather is determined by a secret set of variables (including how long it's been since the last diamond spawned). RoWs might be the same.

Yeah, they is still a lot out there. Most olbies have them. But they are also rare and hard to come by now so they don't trade/sell them.

It is a fixed chance number. You know stochastics? That's all, there is no secret stuff.
It's just like that there a "treasure" which the mining rock uses. In it is defined what can appear if the rock is destroyed and the chance for it to appear.

And are RoWs the same?

I know its not a bug you fool. I just said they can't find the time to fix bugs... so why would they take the time to change this?

Because it doesn't need changed?
