Default 96 Civic CX funny clutch pedal feel??

I bought car for a good deal because the guy said the clutch was out of it. but when I got it home. I fired it up pushed down the clutch and tried to put it in gear. it wouldn't go. No suprise!. Next I put it in gear put my foot on the clutch right to the floor, fired it up and the car is trying to creep. I let my foot of the clutch like 1/8" and the car goes. no clutch slip?. So I bled the clutch and the car works well not problem with the clutch what so ever. so my question is. if the clutch does this again, what is causing it?

there should be a threaded rod goin to the master cylinder. this is where the adjustment it. you should have 1/2 - 3/4 an inch of free play.
