DeepL translation exceptions list

The verb "pédaler", means to push the pedals of something. But it is also an idiom that means to get nowhere fast. That's what the player meant, talking about the server where Ryzom is running on.

But a server can be a domestic serving at the table. And a "pédale" is something operated by the foot, like a bicycle pedal. And in more familiar and offensive language, it means a homosexual man!

And why do they use "pédale" to refer to a homosexual man? "Pédale" is a derivative of "pédéraste" (pederast).
