    That really sucks...but honestly why the hell would you give a new member so much power when they had just joined your FC? Who cares if they merged w/you. You don't give them the power to have excess to promotion/withdrawals until they have proven their loyalty. Hopefully other people will read this and learn from your FC's mistake.

    They couldn't withdraw, only deposit. We weren't even going to allow him access to the gil because I like to keep meticulous bookkeeping of where our funds come from. A mistake on our parts for being too trusting, but if the hierarchy worked as a hierarchy should, this wouldn't have happened.

    You obviously have never taken part in a merge. Most if not all the time the leader of the incoming guild/fc/whatever is given basic privileges to invite and manage their members until they are all fully integrated into the receiving one. In other games having such power does not pose as much of a risk seeing they can only promote to the rank below theirs at best, this is not the case here.

    Nice assumption, but you are incorrect. My previous FC, which is no longer active, was at 1 time the largest FC on Adamantoise. Within that time we had several smaller FCs merge with us. And we had no problems inviting all their members into our ranks. Granted we did lose all our items/gil once our "Fearless Leader" decided to leave the game for Wildstar and not tell anyone. We had several(minor) server firsts including first DoW/DoM to 50, first crafting class to 50, and first to have all crafting classes to 50. So we had quite a bit of goodies, but I digress. Once again, I'm sorry that this happened to you guys, but take it as a learning experience. I know it sucks(been there) but don't be so trustworthy to new people. Especially ones who are expecting access to your company chest. Make them go through a probationary period or w/e.
