So there was an awesomely hilarious blog out of Coalguys the other day: here.
I'll take the main excerpt out:
a.f.k. – Retarded encoding. Downscaled XviD in 2009? What the hell are they thinking.
ANBU – Led/controlled by a Korean with hwabyeong (this is proven by a very good friend of mine who has worked with ANBU). The chemistry between the team is shit. Slow. Have a terrible ego. Can’t really tl for shit.
Ayako – Think it’s cute to literally shit up their subs. Willing to sacrifice A LOT of quality for speed. Led by some guy who is very childish and immature. Releases a shitty/LQ version in order to “be first”. Thinks song lyrics are essential to a sub (three liner in Railgun, anyone?). Subs don’t really flow.
BSS – Really fucking lazy people for the majority. Drama over actual work.
Chihiro – Shitty aesthetic senses. Leader invents shit and backs it with his terrible logic. Slow. Delusional and think subbing for their own joy is a noble goal. Seriously, if you are not subbing for the audience, you might as well go get an actual hobby that will get you laid!
CoalGuys – No flaws. Best group ever. Led by a well respected black man who puts references in their subs in order to get a reaction out of the community. Drama over actual work.
Commie – Think they have the potential to become [gg], but they really go too far with the shit they put in their subs. Releases random episode/do stupid shit to try and “gain” fame/recognition. Led by an immature 16 year old.
Doki – Shitty translations. How do I English guys? I don’t need to say more.
Eclipse – Editor literally only spell checks and calls it “editing”. I’m not shitting you. I mean, isn’t Eclipse notorious for their bad editing and weird phrasing errors? Oh, and if you hadn’t realized yet, their OP/ED karaoke templates have been the same for at least 5 fucking seasons. Fucking terrible fanbase. #Eclipse@irc.rizon.net is disgusting.
FFFpeeps – Fucking ugly fonts. Terrible English. Subs don’t flow. See: http://ji-hi.net/kaichou/index.html
Formula – Terrible translations. Terrible English.
Frostii – Most overhyped group. They believe stalling = quality and make embarrassing errors. Founder believes that the group revolves around her. “My way or the highway,” etc. Fansubbing is a team thing! You can’t force anyone to do shit! Read: http://pastebin.com/7n81vMJh
gg - You can’t spell fa__ots without us. Lots of random translators. HAD THE SCENE IN THEIR HANDS FOR A SHORT WHILE.
Kesenai – Can’t translate. Slow. Led by some retarded kid.
Lunar – Slow. Throws in fucking splash screens. Invented the most bastardized method of timing.
m.3.3.w – Slow. Real slow. Group is filled with retarded people who can’t get their shit right.
Mazui – V2s, V2s, and V2s. Terrible styling. Fucking annoying “lyrics” during insert songs. HONESTLY, WE DON’T NEED THOSE.
Menclave – SLOW. DEAD.
Nutbladder – Led by some creepy faggot who is terribly hard to work with (personal experience). The guy got kicked out of gg for being a faggot. OH, THE IRONY. Not to mention he sometimes write indecipherable shit.
Rumbel – Fucking slow. Fabulous TL notes.
SFW – This group is a joke. I don’t think anyone could take their leader seriously.
SHiN-gx – Shitty translations and terrible English.
StaticSubs – This group was once glorious, but now its standard has dropped. Current encoder is the biggest egomaniac you will ever meet on IRC, yet his skills don’t match up with the shit he spews.
THORA – FUCK. IS IT THAT HARD TO STYLE? ASDKLJFAKLJSDFKLJASDFKLJASDFJKLAJKLSDFKLJ
TMD – Awkward translation. English, guys, English.
UTW – Styling, styling, styling. Sometimes make the most elementary mistake. Subs do not flow at all. Reading it makes me cringe.
Yuurisan – Slow. Bad translation in some cases. ENGRISH in some cases. Picks up shit without finishing other shit.
All I gotta say is if most fansubbing groups spent as much time working on their subs as they do trolling each other it would all be better than the original Japanese airing. :P

Coalguys staff here. I agree with everything Jaka said.
Well I knew you would. You have Coalguys written all over your face it's obvious even if people didn't know it. :P
Lawls aside, I have to agree with most of it. There is hardly a handful of "honest" fansubbers who concentrate solely on their work rather than trying to one-up the competition one moment, and trolling them the next. Not to say Coalguys isn't one of them though. XD
All I'm glad is that I'm loyal to no one. Except CrystalNova. God I miss those guys. ;_:
