Yes. AFAIK, tools like blaze regulator (used to remote admin FDS) includes functions for ladders. Individual server host can have their own ladders. Their server ladders are in no way official or linked to each other. Each game in the ren gamelist on XWIS will have an icon beside it to say if it is a Laddered server, Dedicated Server etc.

Renguard is a tool running in background of ren, it checks the gamers comp for cheats. Server admins can choose to force users to have it running to play on their servers.
