Market Boards are just the fastest way to do it even if you lose a portion of it - Even being unmanned it would take quite awhile to get the same sum of gil through NPC that you could get from 1 set of shards on markets. A lot of RMT from what I seen either asks you to friend them so they can mail money or they buy certain item(s) from you, so it does get rid of a way for SE to see who is doing RMT but you can't really stop em from making gil since like in 1.0, they can easily create numerous characters (or hacks :\) to run initial quests and low level crafting rewards ad infinitum.
