I can say that I'm not a hacker. I just have some knowledges but not enough to pretend that I'm a hacker. For me, a hacker is someone who knows how to:
1- Manipulate people to get access (to a network for example)
2- Gather information from this network (discover what he didn't know)
3- Exploit these informations (to choose an attack)
4- Perform an attack to arrive to his goal (prevent for white hat or destroy for black hat)
5- Write his own programs, exploits, web pages etc ...

I have a friend who pretends that he is a surveyed hacker and a warez activist but he doesn't even know how to write his own blog (he is using skyrock lol :3). I didn't tell him what I already know, waht i'm able to do and what I did on the university network (lol) but I'm sure that he is not a hacker and I'm not one too even if I know all lot of things that he doesn't know!

Oh and real hackers never say that they are ;-)
