As far as BG1 is concerned, a few other people have complained that their Rep went into the toilet in Chapter 6, unless they let Rieltar and Company get killed by someone else. Funny, but I never lost a single Rep point in the deal, even when I was whacking them with my Paladin.
But that's water under the bridge. I have heard that YES, there IS a way to get your Paladin status back: By completing the Paladin Stronghold quests that earn you a membership in the Order of the Most Radiant Heart. (I've also heard that Rangers have a similar opportunity.) The Bad News: You won't be able to do it right away, as to even initiate the quests, you have to kill 1 of the 2 toughest enemies in SoA (neither of whom is the final boss).
