Mith is correct. Think Kong should take their own advice. As you do not have to be operating a vehicle to be granted credit for completing the quest, as long as you are close enough to the tower when it is destroyed, you will complete the quest. So, yes, only seige vehicles can damage the towers but you personally do not need to be in one for the tower to be destroyed because someone else can be operating said seige vehicle. I don't think Kong really 'got' that concept when replying.
Of course they don't, read the quest!

The three towers south of the Wintergrasp river are draining power from the Fortress! Destroy Shadowsight Tower, Flamewatch Tower or Winter's Edge Tower, then return to me. Remember, only siege vehicles can damage a tower, so make sure to protect them from the Horde!
