So, I was playing on a server and someone told me about an easy way to find diamond. I tried, it worked for me. Here are the instructions:
Make a 20 by 20 room in level 16 or lower. Hollow it out, there is a 75% chance you will find diamond in the room, although you will find redstone a lot. Post if this worked for you and how many tries it took for you to find it. It took me 2 tries!

Eh... I just go down to Bedrock level, dig lots of tunnels and leave a two block wide space between tunnels. I do that for about 10 rows and I'll have enough Diamonds to make a chestplate.

The funny thing is, by the time you finish reading this, you will have wasted about four seconds of your life...
This will work if you are looking for diamonds in mass value, just as branch mining and strip mining will do. This is also not a horrible idea because there is a chance that you might mine in a slime chunk (if you're playing 1.9.4 or earlier), so you could get both diamonds and slimes if the area is well lit. Lay off the guy, this is actually a decent idea, just not limited to diamonds.

Slimes, never thought of that. Slimes are useful for sticky pistons and potions in the future. Thanks for sticking up for me, although I am a girl.
