Anyone here can explain when raider.io make excuse that all run cannot be contribute to score because blizzard api only send some top runs per dungeon ,how come they are able to track run of keys that doesn't contribute to Io score ?

How is that an excuse?
I don't know if there's much of a limit anymore since I haven't seen any warnings of leaderboards being full in a while, but it used to be that only the top like, 500 keys would ever be uploaded to the API which is what raider.io would read from.
If your run didn't make it into the top 500, you were out of luck and it wouldn't register.
That has nothing to do with if the run contributes to your io or not. On some servers you'd have to do like at least a +8 in time for the run to show up in that range that raider.io can pick up, but then you could run a +4 with a pug on a server that's completely dead and that +4 will show up on their server's side which would then put it on your io page.

Yup best way to build your score if you are a returning or new player is build your own keys don't expect to get into high stuff right away.

Except you can link alts. Also you can't just check teammates via looking at armory because anyone can get 400 ilvl very easily.
Limit still does exist as doing a 8,9,10,11 key at the end of week doesn't contribute to keys . Just because warning of leader boards being full doesn't show it doesn't mean 500 doesn't exist.
For example:- i do a +8 key at the end of reset week(Tuesday late night) and i even +3 it but cutoff of top 500 scoreboard of each dungeon will not be below +10 (what i saw in season 1 , season 2 affix is more easy cutoff should have gone above, realm- EU silvermoon). My run doesn't make into API's top 500 run and as IO reads only from the API +3 key run will not contribute to IO score and shouldn't be tracked yet these run will be tracked with correct information and doesn't contribute to score. Once i did a +3 SOB just to learn the dungeon as i didn't bothered to go through long quest of dungeon unlock on alliance side.As expected +3 run didn't contribute to IO score yet they are able to track the run.
So how is it that a run can tracked along with how much time a group took to complete the dungeon along with name of every group but it doesn't contribute even +1 to Io score?
If even +3 SOB was in top 500 of some dead realm i should have got some score as it was tracked by some API that only include top 500 run /dungeon for a realm.I my Io profile i have seen each and every +8/+9 run being tracked but majority of them doesn't even add 1 to IO score
A run got tracked it should contribute to score but it doesn't

i disagree - FF 14 have completly different community then for example wow.
i may not enjoy their slow gamestyle but hell i envy them their assesment systems and promotion of helping others.
wow could learn so much from them .
but its to lat now - blizzard is making wya to much $$ from selling gold to people who have no other choice but to buy boost to promote this in wow.
Raider.io exists because there are no adequate in-game features that support vetting applicants to M+ groups.
Challenge Mode : Play WoW like my disability has me play:
You will need two people, Brian MUST use the mouse for movement/looking and John MUST use the keyboard for casting, attacking, healing etc.
Briand and John share the same goal, same intentions - but they can't talk to each other, however they can react to each other's in game activities.
Now see how far Brian and John get in WoW.
I'm honestly lost on what you're trying to say.
A +3 SoB in time won't count towards your IO score if you already have better done. It only ever takes into account the best key you ran for that dungeon towards your score.
If you play on Silvermoon, it looks like you play on a server that's similar to Thrall/Sargeras NA, which is what I play on.

The leaderboard is ridiculously full for you (for some reason they moved the warning off of the page of the character). So if you want a key that's not higher than what they have there to register, find a group with someone from a servers that aren't full.

No, I'm not forgetting gearscore at all. Like I said, ilvl was never a good indicator even then. Sure, some people used gearscore, but only because they were too lazy to check logs. And those people ended up with a bunch of people in full PvP gear with no idea what to do in their PUGs.

The only way that's possible is if you're a tank, healer or meta class. My main is a hunter with 1215 .io. I can't get into anything above a 9, ever. The only way I can raise my score is to use my own key, since that's the only way I'll be in a key high enough where raising score is possible. That's just the way it is.
I have every dungeon 11+ in time and a few 13s and 14s. Literally all of them were on my own key. Nobody's inviting a hunter unless their score is way over the dungeon level.
I know for a fact that I'm skilled enough to get to 1400 score because I've already timed multiple dungeons at 13/14. The only reason my score isn't 1400 already is because I haven't had the opportunity to run a lot of dungeons at +14 yet. So I don't have any qualms at all about inviting people 1400 to my own key groups, even though I'm only 1215 myself.
Of course I will take lower if I have to, but there is such an oversupply of DPS and healers that you never really need to. The only time you have to compromise is on tanks because they are much rarer.

First, you have to understand how raider.io works. It gives you a score for each dungeon and it aggregates those numbers.
For mythic raiders, like me, it doesn't really worth to go to M+ except the first weeks of a new season. I am only interested Waycrest Manor, for a specific trinket.
That means i will never ever go into other dungeon than WM and will not go higher than 10-12. Which also means, i have a low raider.io score, despite i'm technically boosting those "high scores" players.
What i would like to be a nice addition is flag the leavers. Therefore we could see the "high score" guys and avoid them.
Your info is very old. You can do a +2 key two minutes before reset and it will show up on raider.io because every run is availbale via the API from the arsenal.
I have actually done that with my hunter alt. Started out with +5/+6 keys and worked my way up to +9 intime in every dungeon. Took about 50 dungeons over 60 hours of /played. Of course you can't just click 2 groups and expect to get invited, get your fishing rod out and make some gold while applying for groups. Now I am at:
so a key run even if it not in top 500 will contribute to IO score ?

Their are lot of key run which didn't contribute to my IO (some week score doesn't even increase).Yet they show in raider.io along with score like 89 and don't contribute to IO score.
1.How come a run raider.io was able to track it with accurate detail and score beside the run and yet it doesn't even contribute to IO score
2.Raider.io was able to track the run because +3 SOB was in top 500 in some dead realm ,+3 run contributed to some one io score yet run effect on my score is zero?
3.If raider.io is able to pull key run from armory and then why "top500" still exist ?

i have written that line in relation to what run can or cannot contribute to io score
