I don't want to play a character who loses his powers because someone else deems him not worthy.I don't want to conform my actions to someone else's view of good or appropriate paladin actions. I don't want to be looking over my shoulder and wondering how the DM will interpret my actions and self censor my actions to stick within what I think their boundaries are. I don't want to debate ooc the morality of my choices and my PCs actions. I particularly don't want to atone for stuff I think was just fine.I want to just take up my sword and heroically fight evil.If a DM is fine with me playing a paladin how I want to without overbearing oversight then I consider playing paladins. If a DM has specific views of how paladins must act or lose their powers then I will not choose to play one even though I could RP conforming to those views. I don't choose to play other people's visions of heroes, I choose to play my own.I've talked it over with DMs before the game both times I played paladins. They were cool with my views, decided to trust me as a player, and assured me they would let me play how I wished without overbearing falling issues. It worked out fine both times.</blockquote>
