That old fan sub group I trusted was translating everything wrong for 2 years

I used to just watch whatever fansub was popular, then last month I checked the original Japanese audio against their subs and realized they were adding jokes that weren't there. Has anyone else caught a trusted group slipping like this?

Adding jokes that aren't there is just making stuff up.

Wait, are we sure it's not just a different translation philosophy though? Like maybe they were trying to localize it so it landed better for English speakers, not just a straight word-for-word thing. I kind of like when subs add a little flavor to the jokes, makes it feel less like a school project and more like someone actually watched the show.
