<script type="text/javascript" src="{$mybb->asset_url}/jscripts/jquery.plugins.min.js?ver=1820"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{$mybb->asset_url}/jscripts/general.js?ver=1820"></script> 


is this 3 js needed ?  i think this 3 js file is same

Read the filenames: jquery.js, jquery.plugins.min.js and general.js
jquery.js : the jquery framework
jquery.plugins.min.js : minified file of plugins (utilities) for jquery
general.js : the mybb javascript

They are different js files for different purposes, don't remove them
