At what point you can call yourself a chess player?

Thoughts? 

I guess once you understand basic principles like zugzwang, rooks on the 7th, overextending pawns and fortresses. I don't think you have to be able to apply these things in your games though.

You're a chess player, Avi

When your chess is kind of savvy.

Thoughtful

as soon as you touch a chess piece and make a move, congrats you are a chess player,

not joking, i am serious, but if you meant at what point you can call yourself a good chess player, then answer is after you hit 1100 barrier, intermediate good player

actually it's when you're playing a game of chess.

When you're not worster than Worster, so that nearly includes everyone.

When you've played on game and intended to play again. You're already chess player.

When you play your first game of chess. No matters how you play chess maybe good or bad what matters is 'you play chess'

at the 3rd lunar cycle after Jupiter's SECOND moon passes thru Oremdis meteor field. that's when...and don't you dare do it one sec b4.

a chess player is a person who plays chess

so when you make your first chess move in any sort of game?

(i think you may have meant serious chess player but whatever)

For that you have to change your name to "Chess player" in your official documents.

Then everyone would call you chess player. 

You are a chess player after playing at least 14 OTB tournaments games.
