As far as forgiving people, Mikey Klebbitz started his career editing GTA Wiki off by sassmouthing me and getting a 3 day block for it. He apologized, got unblocked early, and went on to become an administrator. Actually, Sasquatch himself has been unblocked early before.

Wikipedia has a policy that says "blocks are preventative not punitive" - while they go way too far in the direction of not blocking people with "they've already disrupted and aren't going to do it again so there's no point and it's mean" reasoning, it might be relevant here.

Sasquatch has promised to watch his temper, we've all agreed that one more temper flare-up and he'll be blocked for good with no further appeals considered, and with all this acknowledged it's my opinion there's no reason to keep the block going. Shortening the block without completely undoing it, down to two weeks or even one week, is also a possibility. Of course, Tom was the one who was so badly insulted so he gets more say.

As far as affiliation goes, I'm fine with it regardless of who serves on staff on Myths Wiki. Editors come to GTA Wiki wanting to write about myths, and directing them to the wiki about myths seems to me like it's a service for the general editor and even the user who doesn't edit just wants to read.
