Pick paladin due to this factor. A monk can give good service in the long-run, but monks usually want to overgear the content they face. At level 50+ that usually equates to doing a lot of guild- and raid-related activities. The paladin is easier if you're in more level-appropriate equipment and still enjoys a pretty good ceiling.

Main issue with the paladin is--it's SLOW. I don't have the patience to solo them at 50+ for that reason. This is EQ, and melee classes aren't really meant for solo'ing in general, and even being decent by solo melee standards still means you stink at it compared to any of several caster types. However, if you're going to do it and don't have time/inclination to get the character decked out in raid loot, the paladin suits your needs better than a monk would.
