| Basically, I need help setting up a round robin to make sure that irc.mydomain.net goes to server 1, server 2, or server 3. Im not sure how to do this and any help will be grateful! |

create multiple DNS records for your zone with the same name but different IPs... for example:
zone network.tld {
irc IN A 1.1.1.1
irc IN A 1.1.1.2
irc IN A 1.1.1.3
}
and so forth |

| Ive done a lot of research on this, however I am still not too sure where to change the zone file, extra software needed, and whether or not I need to change info on godaddy. |

| in webmin, go to servers > bind dns server, click on the zone for your irc network domain name (there should be an 'existing DNS zones' list). from there, click 'Address' and just add however many irc.yourdomain.com entries you like, each pointing to the ip address of a different server. apply the configuration, and you're done. |
