i just want him to have the option to come back if he ever wanted too

That's not how this works.

If he wanted to make a return, he can make an unban request himself. I appreciate what you're doing for him, but unless he makes an unban request, nothing will likely come from this.

With that being said, however, I like Swan and have 0 problems with him being unbanned/having a ban reduction.

It's up to the Admins what to do, though.
