You already know and already said the answer in this very thread. Lets use the way back to (yesterday) machine.

You quoted me here with more cherry picking:

> [@Whitehound](#):
>
> * * *

Where I explained in full:

> [@MinerArt](#):
>
> Shooting it would do damage and alert your corp that someone is attacking it. It is involved in a war. Maybe the person who’s shooting it’s war, maybe not theirs, decoy tactics are 100% legit and nothing is stopping you from deploying more than 1. Blowing it up is immediate loss of it’s intel ability as you need to go to it to get the intel. War timer continues until time expires. If another object is deployed (and still fueled) war continues. Intel switch from A to B happens at war end cycle time where it takes over. If someone is intelligent and figures out all your devices involved in their war and blows them up right before war timer ends and you have nothing left to continue the war well that’s just damed good tactics.

But you decided to ignore the full statement and only quote:

> [@MinerArt](#):
>
> Blowing it up is immediate loss of it’s intel ability as you need to go to it to get the intel. War timer continues until time expires.

Now if you’re going to troll about things you have DIRECTLY QUOTED by choosing to forget them in full because they contradict your bias then you’re done because you can’t argue.

This thread is based on heresay  
It’s not based on anything said by CCP so really no one cares

It needs to die for that simple fact

You two have been arguing for over a day now, might as well get a room and make out…

No, I’m asking you, because you keep dodging the question. You then write a lot, like saying it continues and in another sentence further down do you then contradict your statement and say it doesn’t. So I don’t know.

Interesting statement. So when you refuse an answer does that make you worse?

To announce that there must be no criticism of the president… is morally treasonable to the American public.

Yes.

Here is a question for you.

Do you know what the two most commonly and most simple answers to a question are?

Yes.  
 No.

Then when you have been answered and choose to deny that answer because you refuse to listen you confirm you are wrong.

We now know what your problem is. You fail to answer a question with a simple Yes and No.

Thank you for ignoring me. Proves you can’t contradict the facts. In addition you are now well beyond open trolling.

I have asked you a question, which you can asnwer with a simple Yes or No.

When you fail at giving answers, then you’re not interested in a discussion and are not willing to provide meaningful responses.

We can try this again of course…

Is the object tied to the wardec timer (Yes) or is it not (No)?

Yes  
 No

Yes. It starts your war.

Now you’re going to ask it again. You are also going to ignore it again.

You can stop asking rhetorical questions then. You ask “may I ask a follow-up question, please?” is literally a follow up question.
