Sounds more like everyone used [realname][number] as their password because IT decided that changing your password every couple months is the most "secure". Even though it's not and causes [realname][number] passwords in the first place.
The adrenochrome factory made me do some shit like that so I started keeping a sticky note with the log in name and password on the monitor and the password for some other system in a clear text .txt file in the documents tab titled "[other system] password"
There may have been some password expiration set for the windows users, but I'm referring specifically to their database. My trainer literally told me that although I could change it if I wanted to, nearly everyone kept the same default password.
