Wait... let me just qualify that.
All other prophets are false prophets. I'm the card-carrying real deal, so you can take my word for it.
Prophets are given what they can handle, what is necessary to convey to the people at the time, despite the prophet's fallibility.

Well, I am a prophet, with a proven track record. Are you seriously teaching me to suck eggs?
The principal dentifying characteristic of a false prophet, other than they're trying to claim prophecy, is that they're the only ones who are surprised when their prophecies fail. Ask Harold Camping.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Jonah sure was surprised/pissed off that Ninevah repented and the wrath of God did not fall upon them at first as he prophesied.
