I can't view profile pages when I'm logged in, but yet I can when I'm logged out. Additionally I can't change my avatar or set a signature. Is this a bug, or is it intentional?

That's intentional, but the way you word it, it really doesn't make a lot of sense.
The reasoning is to stop spam bots from harvesting data from users. But I didn't realize that it didn't block viewing user profiles as guests as well. I'll resolve that.
Uploading an avatar is a similar thing. Once you get 3 posts, you'll get access to all user level features (including viewing user profiles).
That makes sence now. I guess that's what the recently registered users does?
