I wanna say that it's more likely someone playing an MMO in 2003 was likely not someone who started with WoW (which came out in 2004, iirc). While WoW garnered a whole new interest in the MMO genre, specifically from western audiences. Because of WoW's size and popularity, a lot of terms could be derived specifically from it's playerbase and not just a general 'era' of gaming. I wouldn't be surprised at all if this or another survey indicated some, if not many, WoW-only terms that some may have thought were more widespread among many MMOs.
