Prophets "well up" - Theirs is to reveal. It is the Spirit's to enact.
And what about when the “prophet” states that Earth will shift out of its orbit, and the atmosphere will lighten, even though nowhere in scripture does it mention the Earth’s shifting out of its orbit or the atmosphere lightening?
According to whom? There is evidence of a pole shift - God says He will turn everything upside down... If that is to be taken literally, who can say what else accompanies such an occurrence?
That's the problem with prophets - They reveal... revelation is a serious problem. BUT, much as you have said, the prophets judge the prophets... Have you ever noticed how one prophet will lean upon the works of an older one? The Prophecy is one big continuous organic thing.
Do you accept ALL who prophesy, including those who accuse others of committing crimes whilst not presenting any proof of those charges, or those who state that earth will shift out of its orbit?
No. But one must allow a tree to bear fruit. Prophesying that cannot be determined in the immediate is not something that can be readily judged.
Is there any penalty affixed to people who makes prophecies that are false? Do you find fault in those who accuse others of committing crimes that they don’t present proof of?
If a prophet is determined to be a false prophet, he should be shunned. But until that determination is materially made, judgment should be reserved, preserving the possibility that the prophecy is of God. If the Spirit provides affirmations, then the prophet is affirmed. JMO.
As to the accusation against word_warrior_bob, it is a strong rebuke, and I don't know the reason for it. But I am not equipped to judge it either way.
I am the very least among you ALL, as I admit that I certainly have broken every single one of the ten commandments, and some of them many times over. There is hardly a commandment of God of any kind, or even a suggestion He has made, which I have not promptly endeavored to go the other way entirely.
I stand among you by the GRACE of God alone through the blood of Christ. What others have done does not concern me.

ACTUALLY, THAT’S NOT TRUE.
SCRIPTURE DOES TALK ABOUT THE EARTH
REELING OUT OF IT’S PLACE.

In terms of elbowing Paul out of “chiefest of sinners” I suspect there are a number of us in that line.
I think your post is well stated and quite true.
