The cabins were originally created to kind of keep track of what users liked to do. Basically you had the ones that helped new people, fight vandalism, help expand the wiki, or adding pictures. The problem became that the cabins really weren't doing much, as you didn't need to be a member of the Apollo Cabin to add images or be a member of the Ares Cabin to fight vandalism. Then you had people that were just joining cabins because they liked the god that represented the cabin. We also had several requests for cabin creation simply because they wanted a particular god to have a cabin on the site so they could join it. Eventually, it was decided that the cabins aren't doing much, so they were deleted (even if I modified the userboxes for the cabins I liked and added them to my page, lol).
