Paladins can be evil, its all in perception. People who straddle good and evil to extremes always work against the interests of others in some way... being evil... or inadvertently good. It happens all the time. Lots of great epic stories written about this.
I prefer that to "immersion". But yeah... this is a choice between MUD or a more interesting and populace server.
Look at WoW blood elf paladins. They actually make sense IMO. But this is getting off topic insofar as teams are concerned its not as big an issue as purists think. Paladins being on evil and necros being on good.
There's also the metagame explanations that all RPers can come up with for being good or evil irregardless of class... DnD was less restrictive in this regard. Death Knights could by on a path to redeeming themselves. Paladins could loose their god granted powers. Necromancers could be seeking to extend life or master life and death, not just domination.
