    When you type 2 dev you can see how there are gamertags that have a starting number. Are these devs? Why are they friending each other? So odd. If you can give me info on this it is appreciated.

    :)

    No they are not developers(devs).

    I think the most plausible answer is that they are actual test accounts... or some sort of bot generated account. The biggest red flag is that they start with numbers, which isn't typical of gamertags on Xbox Live. The closest thing to it I could find
    past using the 'find someone' button in the friends tab on console, where gamertags that started with special characters. The latest gamertag update made special characters and certain characters from different languages usable in gamertags but starting with
    numbers is still rather unusual. The fact its '2' then 'dev' and a rand strain of numbers is probably just the dead give away as to what those accounts are. They all have zero Gamerscore, 0 or no followers, and the number chain is apparently random. I looked
    through a good lot of the ones that came up and honestly, there's no reason someone would purposely make that their gamertag.

    Many times throughout the world, with the infinite possibilities available with gamertags, many people choose the same one. The only way to denote the difference, Xbox automatically puts a nomenclature on the end of it. Basically the same way as a license
    plate for a car would change slightly from one to another but still be in the same category.
