I think it would be cool if some(the 'intelligent\sentient ones make the most sense), if not all, good aligned NPC's would attack evil PC's at will.

I'm all for it, but since guards are good and there are younger evil people, traveling through that area may pose a problem for some of them. Without the engagement system at least.

Guards would be an exception since they aren't in a designated hunting area. Originally, they weren't even supposed to be killable heh.

I still think it would cause other problems for people to bitch about.

Shouldn't this work in reverse as well?
We'll have ourselves a good ol' fashioned feud!

i can't think of a single evil critter that isnt already aggressive.
although it would be cool to see evil critters be non aggressive to evil characters.

I'm guessing you meant miscreant or worse, but what I'm getting at is ... Let's say I want to get a level 10 miscreant killed, all I would have to do is drag him to Koru Hunters.

Perhaps only the higher level ones then. It would make sense for them to have the sense alignment power.

This subject has come up before - there's a thread somewhere dedicated to it. However, I personally believe this to be something that doesn't make sense unless the good-aligned creature has the ability to detect alignment, which is entirely possible, but not common.
So, I could see it for a limited number of things. However, good and evil acts also modify a second hidden attribute - notoriety. When implemented, it is intended that some NPC's act differently toward people based on notoriety. For the most part notoriety scales like your alignment does, but the amount of adjustment up or down per act differs from that of alignments.
All players currently gain positive (popular) or negative (disliked) notoriety based on the same sorts of acts that modify alignment, so you all have a notoriety rating right now... it just doesn't DO anything at this time.
